Not one, but two shades of brown!

Not one, but two shades of brown!

Yes, but it's natural brown, not fake brown.

A profitable investment.

The wood tones are mismatched for my tastes.

I like it, a lot. I like natural wood combos. I was always a big fan of all those natural wood Gibsons, Ibanez, BC Richs, Yamahas, etc. from the '70s. Needs a wood pickguard.

But Firebirds can be heavy and poorly balanced, so I can only imagine how bad a maple winged one is.

 

[reverend1]

I imagine that guitar weights 14 pounds.

Wow, that’s terrible.

I'm sorry, you'll need a Kramer for that.

[Tiltsta]

It is just OK looking.

 

[sunvalleylaw]

Meh. Looks like a wood shop project to me.

Or, reminds me of a late 70's tux in tan, with brown satin ribbon.

I think that is what should be worn while playing it.

 

[CBHScott]

Kinda like it

I've always wanted a Firebird. That's a handsome guitar.
