Epiphone IGC 1963 Firebird V, Vintage Sunburst, Exclusive

Made in Collaboration With Gibson Custom

Epiphone and the Gibson Custom Shop have teamed up again to create the Inspired by Gibson Custom 1963 Firebird V – an authentic replica of the guitar designed by legendary automotive designer Ray Dietrich. When it was launched in 1963, the Firebirdā„¢ was Gibson’s first neck-through-body model, and it went on to be used by players in a wide range of genres, including blues legend Johnny Winter, Keith Richards and Brian Jones of The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, and Phil Manzanera of Roxy Music, to name a few.

The Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom 1963 Firebird V delivers vintage Firebird specifications at an accessible price, including a 9-ply neck-through-body made of mahogany and walnut with mahogany body wings to either side. KlusonĀ® planetary geared ā€œbanjoā€ tuners anchor the strings at the headstock, while an Epiphone ABR-1 bridge and newly redesigned Maestroā„¢ Vibrolaā„¢ with an engraved Epiphone logo hold things down at the other end. The electronics are also premium and include Gibson USA Firebird mini humbuckerā„¢ pickups with Alnico 5 magnets, CTSĀ® potentiometers, Malloryā„¢ capacitors, and a SwitchcraftĀ® 3-way pickup selector toggle switch and 1/4ā€ output jack, giving this remarkable recreation not only the look but also the sound of a classic Firebird V. An Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom hardshell case is also included.
