This was Gibson’s first re-issue of the original Firebird V.

This guitar is in very good condition with just a few small marks and some slight lacquer chips. Please fell free to call us for an “in hand” description. At some point a small hole has been drilled just below the strap button, to fit another strap button, which is no longer present. Otherwise this guitar is all original. There is minimal fret wear and we have set this instrument up in our workshop.
This is a fantastic collector’s instrument.
Sold with the original hard case and a letter from Gibson
