Gibson Firebird I
Aftermarket Price History
Used-market sales only. Sparse monthly volume; showing a rolling 10-sale average by latest sale month.
The Firebird I is the lean, focused end of the Firebird line and has a following precisely because it does less. Buyers come for the shape and the single-pickup bluntness, not for versatility. The best used examples still feel defiantly minimal rather than merely under-equipped.

Market Report
Used examples typically trade between $1,600 and $3,075; anything under $1,600 is worth a close look.
This is a slow-moving market at ~4/month. Sellers may wait longer for the right buyer; don't expect a quick flip.
