Firebirds – they have a unique sound that cuts through everything else. I can’t look at them without hearing Johnny Winter. This is a really clean example of a great guitar that works in very many styles.

Close to the top of the Gibson semi-acoustic line, it’s easy to see from this example why these guitars were favoured by players who needed tone and playability along with a classic appearance. This guitar is in overall good condition.

MORE →This mid 50’s Les Paul Junior has seen some pretty heavy play wear but is all original plays well and flat out has that great vintage vibe that you can feel from across the room!! Comes with newer hardshell case.

As an excellent rockabilly guitar, the ES-295 was famously played by Scotty Moore in Elvis Presley’s band fronm 1952 to 1955. This example, while refinished long ago, is in good playable shape and is ready to rumble!

You can hear them on many Beatles tunes after 1964; one of the most famous examples is Yesterday.The slope shoulder design slightly reduces the amount of bottom end, evening out the tonal response. Overall, this is a great guitar with a great sound, and a place in musical history.
