this is my 1963 left handed firebird. i bought it in 1976 for 950 dollars. played it a few years and sold it in 1978 for 950 dollars. that paid the hospital bill for my sons birth. back in 78 it was 950 dollars for a 3 day stay in the hospital and the birth of a healthy baby. i miss that guitar, i was extremely luck to hold onto to it for a short time but would not trade the expierence. my son is 32 now and still healthy, as i am sure this guitar is. i would love to know who has it now?

I wonder if this is the lefty Firebird VII pictured in the book Vintage Guitars vol. 2, by Mac Yasuda.
