Epiphone Joe Bonamassa Signature Treasure Firebird I 2016

Description

This is the acclaimed Epipone reissue of Joe Bonamassa’s ’63 Firebird featuring thru neck construction, banjo tuners and the ProBucker™ FB720, a one-of-a-kind faithful recreation of the original early 60s Firebird pickup. According to Bonamassa, the Epiphone “Treasure” Firebird-I far exceeded his expectations. “The guitar is called ‘Treasure’ as it’s based on the ‘63 Firebird that was graciously gifted to me” said Bonamassa. “We A/B’d the new Epiphone with my two original 63s. The Epi’s play and sound better! Ugh… I just paid $12,000 for one!” This example is in A1 unmarked condition having only been played at home. Comes with the original Epiphone gigbag and paperwork.
