History of the Firebird
When the Firebird was first launched in 1963, the guitar was Gibson’s first neck-through-body model. Due to its popularity, the guitar was used my music legends in a variety of different musical genres which include Eric Clapton, Kieth Richards and blues legend Johnny Winter to name a few.
Classic Construction with Modern Improvements
The neck is made with a 9-ply neck-through-body made of Mahogany & Walnut with Mahogany body wings each side. The 9-ply neck provides exceptional tuning stability due to the layers of wood reinforcing eachother.
The Kluson planetary geared “Banjo” tuners anchor the strings at the headstock. Combined with the Epiphone ABR bridge and newly designed Maestro Vibrola hold the strings down at the other end, making the tremolo action beautifully smooth.
