  • Description: This is a great old Bird. The pots and serial number both date 1965, so this must be one of the earlier Non-Reverse Firebirds. This one has LOTS of checking, some nicks, dings, and scratches. Buckle rash is not too bad considering the age. There’s a bit of fret wear that can easily be dressed out since there’s lots of fret left. The fingerboard is in great shape. The pickguard is very rough. The bird is gone, and the guard is warped, chipped and shrunken. There’s a crack in the truss rod cover, too. Although the plastic is not so nice, the wood is still in very good shape, and after all, that’s the main thing, isn’t it? Everything’s original except the trem arm. P-90’s sound great.
