Topic: New JB Epi FB?

Long time lurker, so I thought this would make for a good first inquiry:
Thomann has an Epi Joe B FB-I listed but not yet available...no pic either.

Anyone know about these? UK/EU only?

Cheers,

E

A JB Epi Firebird I sounds awesome.  I had an Epiphone Firebird VII and it was a great guitar.

Can't wait to see a picture of it.

I asked Joe the other day in periscope if there were any new Guitar or pedal products in the works. He said no not really but he may have thought I just meant guitar pedal products and it's possible that there are just somethings he can't talk about before an official press release but I'd love a Joe firebird. It would be a nice change up from a les Paul. Maybe it's a epiphone Bonabyrd however based on the listing I said the first is more likely.

They also have a Paul Weller Casino listed on the Thomann site as yet to be released. The word is that those are due early in August. Maybe it's the same for the FB.

Re: New JB Epi FB?

The only thing that may keep me from getting a firebird is the fact that a Gibson can be had for $1100. Depending on the price on the price difference and the actual differences in the guitar it might not be worth it. Maybe they will do a Gibson version as well if they do.

I saw the site page for it. I'd like to see what the Epiphone sunburst looks like.

Well, we now have a picture of them. Firebird I.

Nice to see there is an opinion that isn't sunburst.
