This is kind of nifty. Thoughts?

Silly key word spamming.

"Firebird II RD Guitar Bass Body Part Thunderbird"

 

And amazing how they have enclosed the body so carefully in maple you don't see any maho at all. What artisanship, only at Gibson do the put maple veneer over the inside of maho routings. This seller sure knows what he's offering, accept no substitute.

Or wait for it when he sells the "Tele Strat Ric LP SG bass or guitar drum kit".

Could very well have originated in the Gibson factory and later veneered for someone's project. Not what I'd call a vintage NOS Gibson though.

I think it's just a regular CMT body from the last run of RD guitars they did. Nothing special about it and certainly no maho content.

But it's shaped like a T-Bird - sort of - and routed like an RD.  Weird. It's not really either exactly.
