    Thank you so much for this great demo of Firebird VII tones. Had to flip thru a bunch that never really showed the the pup selection they were using. Again, thanks man. 👏🏻

    I’m proud to share I have a FBVII. It’s not like a telecaster because I have one of those too. The FB VII is easily the quirkiest guitar I have.

      @@danielcgomez No the Ceriatone's are long gone. They're incredibly well built amps but I found out after a while that dumble style amps arent for me. Always worth trying these things though :)

    I played Alan Haynes old Firebird in the late 70s, and the neck was a baseball bat! Never played another since, but damn if they dint around great for blues to me.
    Great demo. You've sold me on the reissue Super. SUBBED

    Not mini humbuckers. Those are firebird pickups. It's totally different. Firebird pickups have no pole pieces.

    • @freddieellis8449

      Yeah, I used to think they were minis until I watched Five Watt World’s video on the history of the Firebird!

    i wonder if its hard to wire the middle position to only have the middle pickup active, i love firebirds but also love the single middle pickup sound. a 5 way switch would be a cool mod too

    Check out Phil Manzanera, of Roxy Music. He's been playing a 65 Fbird 7 for years now.

    Are those the stock ceramic pickups? I hope so because I have a 2007 firebird on the way and this thing sounds perfect!!!!!

  • @fei-fun2856
    @fei-fun2856 3 года назад

    Hi there!! How about the neck man? Is this a heavy neck that pending down or it fits up? Because this guitar has a big headstock and big tuners, so that’s why I asked this question, I think this neck it’s falling down when it’s playing

  • @morbidart5714
    @morbidart5714 2 года назад

  • @marlonvaronen4971
    @marlonvaronen4971 4 года назад

    That guitar is so hot! Did you experience it going out of tune easily? That's what I been reading about it in some places, I never got to try one myself.

    • @rmcq1999
      @rmcq1999 2 года назад

      Schaller roller bridge and lubricant (Music Nomad is good) on the nut with string changes. It's still not perfect, but those two things improve the stability quite a lot. You go from using the vibrola and knocking it badly out of tune immediately to using the vibrola moderately over a few songs and only going slightly out.
