Step into the next chapter of iconic design with the Gibson Firebird Platypus, a modern tribute to a rare 1965 transitional model that redefined the original Firebird legacy. Built for players who appreciate history, innovation, and individuality, this distinctive instrument showcases the unique Platypus-style headstock — a refined, flat design that improves tuning stability with six-in-line Grover® Mini Rotomatic® tuners. The visually striking Reverse Firebird body shape remains, now sculpted from solid mahogany with the illusion of a neck-through build, offering rich resonance and classic sustain. Equipped with a pair of vintage-voiced Firebird mini humbuckers featuring Alnico 5 magnets, this guitar delivers everything from sparkling clean tones to raw rock energy. The set mahogany neck boasts a SlimTaper™ profile, topped with a 12" radius rosewood fingerboard and classic acrylic trapezoid inlays for smooth, precise playability. Finished in gloss Tobacco Sunburst and appointed with chrome hardware, the Firebird Platypus is both a tonal and visual standout. Includes a Gibson hardshell case, available now at Haggerty’s Music.
