Descripción

Rare used item!
This is a recommended used Firebird I, custom-ordered as a Custom Shop Edition at the Gibson USA factory in 1990, before the establishment of the Gibson Custom Shop! It's a simple yet superb instrument with one mini-humbucker and a wraparound bar bridge! The Vintage Sunburst color is incredibly cool!

With its striking design and sharp rock and roll sound, the Firebird is loved by many guitar fans, yet its production numbers are extremely limited, making it a rare sight to behold, whether it's a regular or custom model!

This is a model that was custom-ordered and produced at the Gibson USA factory in 1990 as a Custom Shop Edition, before the establishment of the Gibson Custom Shop in 1992! (The headstock back is marked "Custom Shop Edition.") While examples from around 1990-1991 can be found on the market, this particular instrument was made in 1990.

This is a Firebird I with one mini-humbucker and a Wraparound bar bridge!
The mini-humbuckers, with their crisp sharpness and rich fullness, combined with the wraparound bridge, produce a full, airy, and natural tone. This, along with a unique tension that makes the player feel as if they are one with the guitar, reduces harsh trebly tones and outputs a satisfying bite.

The unique tension and direct, resonant sound characteristic of a bar bridge contribute to the cohesive chord feel when using crunch tones, and its simplicity and ease of use, despite the lack of fine-tuning options, are also key reasons for its popularity!

The body is made of mahogany, the neck is a 9-ply mahogany and walnut construction with a neck-through design, and the fingerboard is rosewood. The trebly and biting sound characteristic of mini-humbuckers is a perfect match for the rich and sustained tone!

Beyond its very rock-and-roll look, this model boasts an easy-to-use sound that blends seamlessly into band music! If you're playing with someone who owns a Firebird-type model, everyone will sense that they're no ordinary musician! Recommended for band members looking for a guitar that exudes a special aura!

We've just received a rare used item! It's from 1990.
The truss rod has about 10 degrees of adjustment remaining in the tightening direction, so there isn't much room for further movement, but it can still bend in the reverse direction, so it is currently usable. This item will be sold in its current condition. There is no warranty.

There are some minor scratches, dents, paint discoloration, sticker residue on the pickguard, pick scratches, scratches on the headstock, and tarnishing on the pickup covers and parts, but there are few large, noticeable scratches or dents.
This watch has undergone full maintenance and cleaning at our shop, so it's ready to use immediately.

The frets are in good working order and have approximately 80% remaining.
The nuts are in good working order and function normally. The truss rods also function correctly for normal adjustments.

The weight is approximately 3.53 kg. It has a well-balanced design that is easy to use.

Accessories include the original brown hard case (with dial lock), a warranty issued by the previous distributor, Yamano Music, and a Japanese Owner's Manual.

Don't miss this opportunity!
