Brian Jones/early Stones vibe ! / raw British Rhythm & Blues mix with jingle jangle psychedelic/folk rock character. Firebird is trully unique & your Epiphone surely supacool ! The look& the sound. Congratulations Sir. I have to buy one too soon:) greetings from Indonesia

The single mic recording doesn’t do it justice. In the room it sounded so full. I’ll get a better recording made soon.

🤣same here. Spent a while rummaging through my packaging looking for "important components". At least Harley Benton stickers are somewhat tongue in cheek.

The headstock is identical to the Gibson headstock after 2018

I've had mine for 6 or 7 months. Sounds absolutely wonderful but the fretwork is sketchy. Above 12th fret really needs leveled. Can't get the action where I want it due to this

I'd like to see the Duesenberg trem on the Firebird !!! I'd say that it would compliment the Firebird a hell of a lot more than the Harley Benton !!!

Since a real Gibson Firebird is around $6000 the Epi is as good as it gets.

Exactly. And recently I'm playing it through an old Marshall Valvestate amp - it sounds great 🙂

Really weird feeling guitars where it feels like the neck is way over to the left. Great looking though.

I notice that a lot less when standing with it on a strap. But sitting down it takes some getting used to.

I’ve spent so much time playing my Firebird, that normal guitars like Les Paul’s or Strats feel weird to me now.

Been listening to this guitar on a few KZbin posts and is it me or does it sound incredibly scratchy? I know it's not meant to have the thickness of a LP but the sound it makes makes my teeth ache. Nothing to do with the playing BTW.

I’ve been using the neck or ‘both’ pickups most of the time, and am enjoying it :-) To be honest, I’ve not found the right volume/tone setting and amp settings for the bridge pickup to satisfy me as much yet. The whole package is very different to the LP’s I’ve had.

It certainly is. I’ve taken it to a couple of gigs now and one coming up in the weekend. I’m loving it. I just needed to get used to how long it is :-)
