Spectrum13 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 H 357 Reverse. Very limited new production however. You can check to gallery for photos. H357 owners sleep late on Sundays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Flying Bird Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Not all 357 owners sleep late on Sundays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredZepp Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 If you use our search and enter H357 .... and select Forums, you will get some search results. There is speculation on how long this will be made. Marv Lamb, one of the owners and original Gibson employee from the early 50's, is making these and may not make more of them because of the work involved. As you can see, it is a neck though design with multi layers of contrasting wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PunkKitty Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I haven't bought one, so I'd have to guess. ... maybe a bit over the $3,000 mark ... depending on features. That's way above my budget.

Play one on a strap first, DB. The one Firebird I've had suffered badly with neck dive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
