The Firebird X System
All capabilities must be simple to use - an extension of the way a guitar player thinks about his current guitar and rig. Gibson's design goal is to bring more creative options to the player while he or she is playing. Thus the user interface will become richer and simpler. Fundamental musical effects will now become available with a minimum of motion and disruption from playing the music. At the same time, the player will be able to see what is happening with the guitar environment very easily, again without disrupting his making music.
Revolutionary
‘Revolution’ is a powerful word - and not one to be thrown around lightly. It indicates a sweeping change, obliterating the past and ushering in a new era. Gibson Firebird X does just that, with features that would have seemed like science fiction just a few years ago.
The Guitar
The Firebird X guitar is clearly evolved from a Gibson Firebird, evocative of a rich history, but with contemporary features. With its hand-applied and unique high-end wood finish, the Firebird X is not unlike a cross between a vintage sports car and a modern sports racer. It is beautiful, historical and yet contemporary and unique. With a limited run of just 1,800 units, it is sure to become a collector classic.
The Engine
The Firebird X features Gibson's turbo-charged ‘Pure-Analog’ engine, which provides an arsenal of professional world class sounds and effects as well as professional analog sound. The engine is user-replaceable, and allows 3rd party developers to make new exciting use of the engine by allowing their software to run on the guitar's engine and a Gibson app store.
The Engine 3rd Party Apps
The entire Firebird X system is designed to a new Gibson standard, which will allow other companies to develop hardware and applications that can integrate with any guitar that uses this standard, including the Firebird X.
