Fernandes RFB-80 Firebird Model
It should be 80's made Firebird model. I had several Firebirds which are very closed specification.
Anyway, this guitar is also pretty good condition.
The metal parts are a bit rusted. To think about the age, it should be proper condition.
The neck is Maho made and straight. this is not though neck construction, set in neck.
I knew that a few Fernandes Firebird has the though neck construction.
It is 3.26Kg weight w/ 43.8 mm width nut size
There are not serious dents, scratches. Well, as I said, it is good condition.
Frets are proper (some low frets have a bit worn - not serious-) , electric
circuits are proper too.
I felt the balance of PU output is not really even. Maybe, for the collection, you don't need to
change the PUs. But if you would play this guitar often, please adjust the PU height or
change the PU depending on your style.
The tuning key is banjo type. One of my friends are looking for the Firebird banjo type peg for
the replacement. Currently, Gotoh is making it only for Gibson as OEM.
Old Greco firebird are mostly regular tuning key (6 in line type). Well, This tuning key type is
rare too.
This guitar will be shipped with hard case which should be original case by Fernandes.
Well, please try Fernandes Burny Firebird guitar!
