~1966 Gibson Firebird III

C. 1966 Gibson non-reverse Firebird III in good condition. Excellent playing firebird with great action and responsive tone. Refinished in turquoise, an eccentric choice for a unique and special firebird. Original pickups scream at a high volume and have a wide variety of tonal capabilities. Switch is replaced with a five way, added mini switch just below the volume knob turns on bridge pickup allowing all three to be on at once when five way is in 2nd position. All pots replaced, output jack is original. Electronics have been checked over and work accordingly. Currently this is wired only with the volume and tone. Stud bridge with “lightning bolt” compensating ridges, vibrato, and pickguard are all original to the guitar and in great condition. Awesome playing neck with a nut width just over 1 9/16”. Guitar stays in tune and is well intonated, with Sperzel locking tuning machines. This is a great sounding vintage Gibson solid body that is priced accordingly with exceptional playability.
