Description
Up for sale is a stunning 1963 Gibson Firebird III. This particular guitar is in very good cosmetic condition showing minor dings. All original except a replaced vibrato arm and a pro refret. There is a shim under the fingerboard at the end of the neck which was probably done durning the refret. Pro setup in house and comes complete with the original hardshell case.

Gibson launched the Firebird design in 1963 with four main models: the Firebird I, II, V, and VII. Each was distinguished by different pickup and hardware configurations, though they all shared thru-body construction and a unique "reversed" body shape with a large lower horn.

The Firebird III used chrome hardware, a bound neck with dot inlays, a "short" Maestro vibrato tailpiece, and two Firebird pickups -- not to be confused with more standard "mini-humbuckers" that Gibson would use later on Les Paul Deluxe models.
