This all-original 1964 Gibson Firebird III in custom color Pelham Blue is so well preserved! Pelham Blue, as well as any custom finish, is pretty rare to come across on any Firebird, much less an early reverse style like this one. This extremely resonant example is such a great player and the sound...
