Gibson Firebird, Cherry Red Overview
Gibson Firebird Overview by GAK.
A new year, a new decade and a fantastic new Gibson Guitars product lineup that is sure to have something for everyone. After a very successful relaunch in 2019, the Gibson USA range has drawn inspiration from it's roots while offering the very best in modern luthiery technques to deliver a true modern classic. Adding to the Gibson Original series you now have the Gibson Les Paul Special in Vintage Cherry, Gibson Les Paul Junior in Ebony and the Gibson ES-345 in Sixties Cherry and Vintage Sunburst to name a few. Other notable additions are the Gibson '70s Flying V and '70s Explorer which are both available in Classic White, the Gibson Les Paul Special Tribute Humbucker available in four colours and last but certainly not least the brand new Gibson Slash Les Paul Standard available in Appetite Amber, November Burst, Vermillion Burst and Anaconda Burst.
The Gibson Firebird rocks a reverse body and headstock design as originally introduced in 1963 and was Gibson's first neck-through-body design. The traditional 9-ply mahogany/walnut neck through body construction provides rich, warm tonality and incredible sustain. A slim taper neck with a bound, rosewood fingerboard and acrylic trapezoid fingerboard inlays offers fast and effortless playability. The newly refreshed Firebird is outfitted with the redeveloped Alnico V Firebird pickup to recapture the scorching output and searing tones of the original voice for which the Firebird is known. Available in 2 classic finishes: Tobacco Sunburst and Cherry.
