Epiphone Firebird

Great Demo .

[@rgerard5083]

I bought one about 6 months ago. I love it. I'm over my high end gear snobbiness.....in spite of the fact I have a Les Paul, PRS, Strat, Tele, 335 etc etc. What I love about the Fbird is it's no apologies hugeness. I jam in a somewhat small studio so people FEAR that headstock. I'm careful but accidents will happen.The headstock was hard to get used to but now I love it's pretentiousness and presence. I'm a big guy and this is a very comfy guitar for me. I had to do a set up on it when I got it. The frets were all oxidized and the fretboard dry, but after a little cleaning and a lot of playing it plays like a dream now. I think it's a great sitting down guitar. It fits in your armpit and stays just right. It looks great. Classy. Love the thru body neck design. Love . Love . Love. and what a price. It sounds awesome and most of all it's different than my jam mates Humbucker guitars. The Fbird stands out without being loud. However...the case is HUGE. I got a gig bag for it too that's LARGE. Great video....thanks!!!

Thanks for watching!

I just got one of these about 3 weeks ago, and have been playing it constantly, Epiphone has stepped up in the last few years, I have a 2021 epiphone sg custom that I play a lot too, they’re great, and I can leave my Gibson’s at home if I go out to jam, and no worries. You can find the Epiphone Firebird case on reverb, you need it.

[@blazeofglory1982]

Nice one! I’ve actually been thinking about pulling the trigger on an Epiphone SG Traditional Pro. They look super cool.

Just got one!😎

Enjoy!

[@Rski1234]

I've had one for a few months and it's fantastic. I had a few sharp fret ends but fix it very easily. The sound is like no other guitar.

[@blazeofglory1982]

It’s a lotta guitar for the money! You’re right. The sound is like no other.

[@Rski1234]

​@@blazeofglory1982 Absolutely!

Is that about 5' long? Case has it's own zip code? ;). Thanks for the tour and comments. Best Regards and Best Wishes!

[@blazeofglory1982]

It’s massive. I gotta find a gig bag for it. Thanks for watching!

[@jcrgtattoo333]

I just got the same guitar from Sweetwater, but the case was back ordered , reverb has the case, you need it man.

@@jcrgtattoo333 Enjoy that thing and play it like ya stole it! :). Best Regards and Best Wishes!

Mojotone Johnny Winter pickups are a good choice. I have a Gibson Firebird and replaced the stock pickups with them.

[@blazeofglory1982]

Sweet! Mojotone makes great stuff.

[@marks915]

@@blazeofglory1982 They certainly do! I have a set of their pickups in my Strat, too. I saw them at NAMM, and loved the sound. Bought them immediately.

[@doonilevitin]

Is this the bolt on version?

[@blazeofglory1982]

@@doonilevitin No actually, it’s a full on neck through.

[@doonilevitin]

@@blazeofglory1982 thanks 🙏 I have an opportunity to buy a made in Korea version that is a bolt on. I have every major electric guitar (Strats, tele, etc( but don’t have this one. Is it recommended?

[@blazeofglory1982]

@doonilevitin part of what makes this guitar sound and feel so great is the neck through design. Personally I wouldn’t go with a bolt on version.

[@doonilevitin]

@@blazeofglory1982 thank, sounds reasonable :)
