1963 Firebird I - Heather Poly
From Epiphone:
"Epiphone and Gibson™ Custom have teamed up again to create the Inspired by Gibson Custom 1963 Firebird I – 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 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. Kluson® planetary geared “banjo” 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 I’s stripped-down specifications, the electronics are also premium and include a Gibson USA Firebird mini humbucker™ pickup with Alnico 5 magnets, CTS® potentiometers, a Mallory™ capacitor, and a Switchcraft® 1/4” 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."
Heather Poly, Mahogany body wings, 1963 Firebird shaped thru body nine-ply Mahogany/Walnut neck, 12" radius Indian Laurel fingerboard with the Mother of Pearl dot inlays and medium jumbo frets, 24.75" scale length, 1.692" nut width, Gibson USA mini-humbucking Firebird bridge pickup with the master volume and tone controls, Wraparound lightning bar stop tailpiece, Kluson banjo style Planetary tuners, 7.9 pounds, With hardshell case
