Up for sale is a 2023 Epiphone 63 Firebird V in Ember Red. This guitar has all the vibe. These inspired by Gibson models are a total hit. The previous owner of this one swapped out the original pick guard and truss rod cover with black variations and we think that's totally awesome. If you don't agree that's totally ok because it does include the original white guard and truss rod cover. It came to us in really good cosmetic condition with no dings to report of. It's cool and ready to be rocked on! Scoop it up while it lasts.
Pro Setup in house and ships with its original hardshell case.
Weight: 8lbs. 12oz.
Changed pickguard and truss rod cover, originals in case
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 Firebird™ 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. Kluson planetary geared “banjo” tuners anchor the strings at the headstock, while an Epiphone ABR-1 bridge and newly redesigned Maestro Vibrola with an engraved Epiphone logo hold things down at the other end. The electronics are also premium and include Gibson USA Firebird mini humbucker pickups with Alnico 5 magnets, CTS potentiometers, Mallory capacitors, and a Switchcraft 3-way pickup selector toggle switch and 1/4” 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.
