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 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 hard-shell case is also included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBody\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShape: Firebird\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBody: 9-ply Mahogany\/Walnut Neck-Through\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeck\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaterial: 9-ply Mahogany\/Walnut\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProfile: 1963 Firebird\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNut width: 43 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFingerboard: Indian Laurel\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScale length: 628.65 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNumber of frets: 22\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNut: Graph Tech\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInlay: Mother of Pearl Trapezoid\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHardware\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBridge: Epiphone ABR\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKnobs: Gold with Silver Reflectors\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTailpiece: Maestro Vibrola\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTuners: Kluson \"Banjo-style\" Planetary\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlating: Nickel\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eElectronics\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeck Pickup: Gibson USA Firebird Mini Humbucker with Alnico 5 Magnet\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBridge Pickup: Gibson USA Firebird Mini Humbucker with Alnico 5 Magnet\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eControls: 2 Volume, 2 Tone, Hand-wired with CTS Potentiometers and Mallory Capacitors\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirebird body with 9-ply mahogany\/walnut neck-through construction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e9-ply mahogany\/walnut neck with 1963 Firebird profile and Indian Laurel fingerboard\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeck Pickup: Gibson USA Firebird Mini Humbucker with Alnico 5 Magnet, Bridge Pickup: Gibson USA Firebird Mini Humbucker with Alnico 5 Magnet\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEpiphone inspired by Gibson Custom hard-shell case is also included\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Epiphone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51901424271645,"sku":"8500691AUSTRALIS","price":3187.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/2092\/9309\/files\/8500691AUSTRALIS_ff5372da-eacc-4986-9cb8-76e603104662.png?v=1782636583","url":"https:\/\/scarlettmusic.com.au\/products\/epiphone-1963-firebird-v-maestro-in-case-ember-red","provider":"Scarlett Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
