i dunno, looks like a bad photoshop lol

Looks like a Gibson branded Epiphone, not a Gibson.

£406 price seems like a steal over here.

I'd consider it if they had a version for lefties.

Flip it and string it reverse, would look like a lefty standard Firebird. Might need lower profile knobs I guess. Gee it looks cheap though.

I play right handed, that was the point.

The knobs don't actually get in the way there, I have a Firebird.

Poplar body..... It's a cool idea but calling it even an Epiphone is insulting. Gibson are supposed to be mahogany in my opinion.

I like poplar as a tonewood. I don't really care about that. Gibson has made nice guitars out of mahogany, limba(korina), chambered bodies with solid maple caps, maple plywood...

It's a blie upside-down firebird

It's wrong, end of

I dunno, kinda looks like the staff was playing Twister with a list of guitar options.

But in all seriousness, that upper bout is way too much of an under achiever and didn't take his vitamins as a youth. Even if the upper bout was non-reverse Firebirdy in shape it seems like it would have balanced out better than the final product.

Unless of course one is a lefty (a la the righty version), though by that time we've bigger issues to address...

I literally laughed out loud when the photo popped up. Love it.

Yeah... I don't get it, haha.
