Though a success, I would also offer the above repair as a warning to all the guitar buyers amongst you. Done properly, something as severe as a full headstock break can be totally concealed. Now while the above repair will likely be perfect for the rest of this guitars days, it could also have been done by someone using the gibson firebird players
wrong glues, or wood fillers etc. I urge caution when buying any guitar that’s been re-finished from its original colour/paint type, as it can be a sure sign that something bad has happened and been covered over.
While the early versions did not quite ignite the public’s imagination the way the Les Paul had, the Firebird has been in production since its introduction, having caught the attention of major players like Eric Clapton, blues legend Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown, and, perhaps most famously, Johnny Winter. All four Rolling Stones guitar slingers - Brian Jones, Keith Richards, Mick Taylor and Ronnie Wood have used Firebirds, as has Joe Perry and Dave Grohl.
