Withdrawal termsDescription
The Epiphone 1963 Firebird I is inspired by Gibson's Firebird and the single-pickup version Gibson introduced in 1963. The Epiphone 1963 Firebird I is built with a classic, resonant, and sustain-rich Firebird neck in 9-piece mahogany/walnut and the lightweight mahogany wings that give the Firebird its distinctive look. A fire-breathing Gibson Mini-humbucker in the bridge position delivers a surprisingly versatile tone, while its unbound laurel fretboard and wraparound Lightning bridge emphasize the Firebird I guitar's straightforward and assertive simplicity. The design is completed with vintage-correct Kluson banjo tuning pegs and a beautiful gloss finish with a matching headstock.
Although the Epiphone Firebird I is clearly inspired by Gibson's first Explorer models, it is dramatically different in construction. The Firebird's signature feature is its 9-piece neck construction. The Firebird's neck consists of mahogany and walnut—from the strap button all the way to the headstock. This neck construction gives the Firebird enormous sustain and an exceptionally responsive, lively feel, even when played unplugged. When combined with two lightweight mahogany wings, you get a guitar that should appeal to even the most sustain-obsessed guitarist.
The slim pickups Gibson used on their 1963 Firebird are often mistaken for Gibson's similar mini-humbuckers from the 70s. However, they are completely original humbucker creations. The Epiphone 1963 Firebird I's Gibson USA-made Firebird pickups are built without pole pieces, recreating the raw rock'n'roll vibe that the original Firebird I possessed.
