Gibson Firebird, Tobacco Burst Overview
Gibson Firebird, Tobacco Burst Overview.
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 Firebird Mini Humbuckers (Rhythm and Lead) impart the unique ""brighter and tighter"" voice for which the Firebird is known. Available in 2 classic finishes: Tobacco Sunburst and Cherry.
