This guitar boasts a sophisticated Vintage Sunburst finish, giving it an undeniable presence! A Firebird soaring high in the sky! The Gibson Firebird was first released in 1963 as Gibson's first model to feature a neck-through-body design! Around the time Gibson hired renowned automotive designer Ray Dietrich to develop a fundamentally new solid-body guitar unlike anything they'd ever created, the wave of rock and roll was slowly sweeping in. With its offset body shape, neck-through construction, and scorching-sounding mini-humbuckers, the Firebird V instantly became a masterpiece in Gibson guitar history. The Firebird V we have in stock this time is a 1997 reissue. This is a Firebird V, a reissue model from 1963, equipped with banjo-style tuning pegs! The body is made of mahogany, the neck is a 9-ply mahogany and walnut construction with a neck-through design, and the fingerboard is rosewood. The trebly and biting sound characteristic of mini-humbuckers is a perfect match for the rich and sustained tone! Beyond its very rock-and-roll look, this model boasts an easy-to-use sound that blends seamlessly into band music! If you're playing with someone who owns a Firebird-type model, everyone will sense that they're no ordinary musician! Recommended for band members looking for a guitar that exudes a special aura!
