New member, so I wanted to post a photo of my 98 'bird. I absolutely love it. I had an opportunity to buy a late 90s 'bird in 2004 but opted to buy a 2000 Gibson Les Paul R7 Gold top instead and while its a great guitar, I always kicked myself for not getting it. Last month, I saw this on reverb and snagged it immediately. Its my favorite by far of my collection. It plays like a dream. I love the Duncan 59 and JB pickups and man, its simply gorgeous. I've read on here about people complaining about the poly finish but it doesn't bother me at all. I'm looking forward to getting a Nightbird, hopefully. Anyway, great forum.
Beautiful! I have I think four Nightbirds and probably four Bluesbirds and I've never had a complaint about the Bluesbird finishes. IMO people put too much weight into finish types. A great guitar is a great guitar.
