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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNote: After close inspection, this instrument has (See pics)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSerial #: 24121520565\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBinding: Single-Ply Cream, Fretboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Material: 9-Ply Mahogany\/Walnut Neck-Through\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Shape: Firebird\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Styles: Firebird\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSide: Solid Mahogany Wings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Material: Indian Laurel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Radius: 304.8 mm \/ 12.0 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFret Count: 22\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrets: Medium Jumbo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInlays: Mother Of Pearl Trapezoid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJoint: Neck-Through-Body Construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Material: 9-Ply Mahogany\/Walnut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Material: Graph Tech\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Width: 43.0 mm \/ 1.69 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Profile: 1963 Firebird\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 628.65 mm \/ 24.75 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Pickup: Gibson USA Firebird Mini Humbucker With Alnico 5 Magnet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls: 2 Volume, 2 Tone, Hand-Wired With CTS Potentiometers And Mallory Capacitors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Pickup: Gibson USA Firebird Mini Humbucker With Alnico 5 Magnet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Jack: 1\/4\" Switchcraft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickup Selector: 3-Way Switchcraft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: Epiphone ABR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl Covers: Black With Inspired By Gibson Custom Hotstamped Logo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl Knobs: Black With Silver Reflectors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware wFinish: Nickel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting Rings: Nickel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard: 3-Ply White; Firebird Logo Hotstamp In Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrap Buttons: 3 - Bottom, Shoulder, And Neck Heel - Historic Firebird Strap Button Placement Locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitch Tip: Ivory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTailpiece: Maestro Vibrola\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTruss Rod: Dual Action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTruss Rod Cover: Black With Epiphone Logo In Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuner Plating: Nickel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuning Machines: Kluson Banjo-Style Planetary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadstock: Firebird\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadstock Inlay: Modern Epiphone Logo In Gold (On Truss Rod Cover)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 8lbs 11oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor this item, returns accepted within 3 days of receiving merchandise.
