The GAS has hit me hard. Does anyone here have non reverse Firebirds? I'd love to see some pics if anyone has any.

I do, one 2009 VII.



May I add it's a f*$`£%g good guitar !
The warren Haynes videos were of great help to my buying it. I wanted a revers in the first place ... never did regret my choice.

Firebird's are awesome in their own right. The cars, and the guitars. They are the awesome bad ass's of either side of the spectrum.

Re: Anyone have non reverse Firebirds?
I've been eying the Firebird VII - seems like a heck of a guitar for the money. How are you digging yours gibsonfndr?

I really like this guitar. At first I thought the neck would be a bit too "beefy" for me but eventually it is highly playable. The guitar is a bit neck-heavy but not to the point that it'd bother me. Maybe that's the reason why I felt like I had to put some strap locks on which I did not do on each of my other guitars. The mini HB are fun. The middle (bridge + middle pup) is interesting. It reminded me of an interview by Stephen Stills a long time ago where he claimed these babes were the ideal combination of Gibson sustain and stratocaster bite. One higly enjoyable guitar. I specially favor playing it when the other guitar player in my band plays a Gibson. Plus this is one eye-catcher as not many people are seen playing one. The audience looks at the guitar with bewildered eyes. Showing off once in a while does feel good. LOL.
