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 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Epiphone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46861536067772,"sku":"8500689","price":2899.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/6599\/5196\/files\/Epiphone-IGC-1963-Firebird-I-Inverness-Green-Body_xighdg.jpg?v=1779762766","url":"https:\/\/worldofmusic.com.au\/products\/epiphone-1963-firebird-i-inverness-green","provider":"World of Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
