Hardware: The nut has been replaced.
Weight: 9 lbs 11 oz
Cosmetic Condition: This vintage Gibson Firebird is in very clean condition, with only light signs of use on the glossy refinished body and neck. The hardware has a nice patina. There is some slight finish cracking visible on the bass side of the neck, near the nut.
Modifications/Repairs: The guitar has been refinished, and there is a headstock repair under the refinish. The neck has been refretted and rebound, and the nut has been replaced. The lead from the switch to the harness has been replaced. The bridge pickup lead has been extended slightly, and some solder joints have been redone.
