Description
This gorgeous Alpine White Firebird features the original 1963-style classic reverse body styling and neck-through body design for increased sustain and solid attack. Modern improvements include high-output ceramic mini-humbuckers and gearless Steinberger 40:1 ratio machine heads for extreme tuning precision. Professionally set up with fresh strings & low action, so it plays & sounds fantastic!
Cosmetic Condition: Excellent condition & very clean overall. The finish has aged somewhat over the years showing some nice variegation throughout. There's a bit of "yellowing" in the finish up near the headstock caused from a hanger. Aside from that the guitar looks wonderful.

Reverse headstock with Steinberger 40:1 ratio gearless tuners. 1 11/16" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.
Body: Classic reverse body styling with neck-thru design & solid mahogany wings. Stopbar tailpiece & Tune-O-Matic bridge with chrome hardware. 3-ply white pickguard with red Firebird logo. Guitar weighs an even 8 lbs & is exceptionally resonant!
