Guitar Firebird
The Firebird Platypus Ebony is a unique electric guitar, inspired by the transitional Gibson models of the 1960s. Featuring a Reverse Firebird mahogany body, it is distinguished by its set-in mahogany neck with a SlimTaper profile and its rosewood fingerboard decorated with acrylic trapezoid inlays. Equipped with 2 Firebird Mini Humbuckers with Alnico 5 magnets, it produces a clear and punchy sound, ideal for rock and blues. Its chrome hardware and Vintage Cherry dress give it an elegant look. Delivered with a hardshell case, it is an instrument as aesthetic as it performs.
