Epiphone’s newest takes on Gibson’s Space Age solidbody are en fuego.
Epiphone and Gibson Custom have teamed up again to create the Inspired by Gibson Custom1963 Firebird I – an authentic replica of the guitar designed by legendary automotive designer RayDietrich. 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 legendJohnny Winter, Keith Richards and Brian Jones of The Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, and PhilManzanera of Roxy Music, to name a few.
The Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom 1963 Firebird I delivers vintage Firebirdspecifications 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. The Epiphone Firebird I is available worldwide in Silver Mist, Heather Poly, and Inverness Green, and on epiphone.com in exclusive Vintage Sunburst and Cherry finishes. An Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom hardshell case is also included.
