A  TASTY PIECE

A '94 Gibson Firebird.
This one is far from original. She was originally sunburst and had 2 pickups. 

By a third party she has been re-sprayed, had a Maple veneer inserted on the front, 
has 2 Seymour Duncans fitted, at some point... and had a Kent Armstrong pickup put in the 
middle position and has a Phase switch added. 
(Unfortunately, the pickups were not put in straight, which is quite noticeable - Hmmm !)
The tailpiece holes were also filled and a Badass type wrap-over bridge fitted... which didn't actually fit.
 
I rewired her, fitted the Wilkinson Bridge and gave her a 'fretjob' and a set up. 
Other than the previous problems, she is now actually a great instrument to play.
