Limited Joe Bonamassa Firebird Signature Electric Guitar with ProBucker FB720 Pickup
The Epiphone Bonamassa Treasue Firebird-I Polymist Gold is a signature model based on Joe’s original 1963 Firebird. Featuring the ProBucker FB720 pickup, which is a one-of-a-kind recreation of the original early 60s Firebird pickup, this guitar is capable of replicating that classic Joe Bonamassa tone. Kluson re-issue of their Firebird/Banjo tuners (gear ratio: 12:1) ensure tuning stability, whilst intonation and clarity is guaranteed through an adjustable wrap-around “Lightning Bar” bridge/tailpiece.
Adorned with an original Firebird bevelled headstock, this guitar is built with a mahogany body in a reverse Firebird shape and leads to a mahogany/walnut neck with a 1960s Rounded-C profile. Connected to this neck is a rosewood fingerboard adorned with 22 medium jumbo frets and dot inlays. Each model comes with a hand-signed certificate of authenticity. This model comes in a stylish Polymist Gold finish.
Joe Bonamassa: “The guitar is called ‘Treasure’ as it’s based on the ‘63 Firebird that was graciously gifted to me 4 years ago. 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!”
