2016 Epiphone Joe Bonamassa Treasure Firebird Electric Guitar w/Upgrades
Overview: This started-out as a Joe Bonamassa Treasure Firebird I but the owner has modified it heavily into, essentially, a Firebird III but with simpler controls. Extras include a US-made Vibrola whammy with "teaspoon" handle, Gibson-branded truss cover, bone nut, a pair of Lollar mini-humbucker pickups w/Firebird covers (and fitting for the neck pickup, of course), better knobs, and a fresh wiring harness with Emerson 500 pots, Switchcraft 3-way switch, and a Switchcraft jack. It is deluxe, now, and both looks, sounds, and plays like a ding-dong champ. The color is eye-catching and also classic-car approved.
Repairs included: Ancel gave it a quick once-over and setup. It's playing spot-on and ready to serve.
