Description
What makes this guitar special: There’s truly little that needs to be said about this Firebird. It comes in Pelham Blue, sounds killer and plays even better. The 495 mini-humbuckers truly embody the classic nature of this model, bringing players tons of single-coil jangle without fully compromising the mid-range and depth of humbuckers. Its Slim Taper neck plays incredibly easy and has good weight balance with the body. Plus, the previous owner took extremely good care of it so it’s still super clean and comes with a free professional setup so it will play that much better upon arriving to its new home.
Cosmetic Condition: This guitar is in excellent condition overall, if not better. It shows very few signs of wear outside of some very light surface scratches and is otherwise in fantastic shape for a used guitar. The neck is straight and the truss rod functions as it should.
Body: Firebird shape two-piece solid mahogany body in Pelham Blue high gloss lacquer finish. 3-ply white pickguard with firebird logo. Chrome pickup covers and pickup rings. Black top hat control knobs with silver inserts. Aluminum Tune-o-matic bridge and stop bar tailpiece.
