1963 Firebird I - Inverness Green
From Epiphone:
"Epiphone and Gibsonâą Custom have teamed up again to create the Inspired by Gibson Custom 1963 Firebird I â an authentic replica of the guitar designed by legendary automotive designer Ray Dietrich. When it was launched in 1963, the Firebirdâą was Gibsonâs 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 I 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. KlusonÂź planetary geared âbanjoâ tuners anchor the strings at the headstock, while a Wraparound Lightning Bar bridge holds things down at the other end and ensures exceptional sustain. While in keeping with the vintage 1963 Firebird Iâs stripped-down specifications, the electronics are also premium and include a Gibson USA Firebird mini humbuckerâą pickup with Alnico 5 magnets, CTSÂź potentiometers, a Malloryâą capacitor, and a SwitchcraftÂź 1/4â output jack, giving this remarkable recreation not only the look but the sound of a classic Firebird I. An Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom hardshell case is also included."
