Gibson Bonabird

[BloodRose]

You guys seen the new Bonabird yet? Can't post a pic right now , but it's a new model for Joe Bonamassa. it's a Les Paul with a firebird headstock. pretty cool change of pace. It's pelham blue. I just wish they would bring out one with an explorer headstock again!!! Check for the Bonabird guys, the music zoo has em

Re: Gibson Bonabird

I hate the Bonamassa on the fretboard.. I dig Joe, he is a cool dude but I don't want his name plastered on my Lester..
The rest of the guitar is kinda funky and cool!

Re: Gibson Bonabird

Looks fugly to me. Then again, I'm not a big fan of the mix and match approach to making guitars. I'd rather see a new design than cobbling together of random parts, but that's a lot more work.

Re: Gibson Bonabird

Not feeling that at all, but I think he is just throwing Gibson trademarks into a blender at this point, doing a mashup because he has so many signature guitars that he is running out of ideas.

Re: Gibson Bonabird

For some strange reason I really like it...except for the signature on the fretboard.

Re: Gibson Bonabird

i like reverse headstocks so i kinda like it. dont have to worry about it being neck heavy

Re: Gibson Bonabird

I'm just gonna say it: Bonamassa is the most over promoted guitarist on the planet. I have listened to him. He is good. Really good. But seriously people….

Re: Gibson Bonabird

Wonder if it neck dives like a regular Forebird?

Re: Gibson Bonabird

FWIW, the production model does not have Joe's name on the fretboard. And I goofed, its spelled Bonabyrd.. haha

Re: Gibson Bonabird

How are you supposed to set the intonation on this thing?

Re: Gibson Bonabird

thats an old style gibson bridge, you can get close but youll never get it perfect. it does have a certain sound and a nice feel to it

Re: Gibson Bonabird

Let's look at the bright side: It might actually stay in tune
