The Firebird V is one of Gibson’s coolest offset designs and always feels a bit more distinctive than the usual Les Paul or SG route. The neck-through construction is a big part of the appeal, because it gives these guitars a really lively, sustaining feel, while the Firebird mini humbuckers keep the tone tighter, brighter and a bit more cutting than a standard full-size humbucker setup. That combination is what makes a good Firebird so addictive. The Vintage Sunburst finish works brilliantly on them too, especially on a ’90s example like this, as it keeps the guitar looking classy while still showing off the slightly eccentric shape and hardware. A very cool USA Gibson and one that always seems to have its own voice.

Very good condition. There are some minor impressions and scratches present from use, but nothing excessive. Overall it still presents very well and remains a tidy example.
