Gibson - '63 Firebird I Vintage Sunburst VOS

Description

Accessories Included: Hardshell Case, COA

When the Firebird first launched in 1963, Gibson offered the model in myriad forms, from the blinged-out Firebird V to the workhorse Firebird I. This Gibson Custom Dealer Select 1963 Firebird I is a masterfully crafted tribute to the latter in all its single-pickup glory! Like the rest of its flock, this Firebird I sports a 5-piece mahogany/walnut neck-through construction and mahogany wings, which grant this ’bird a prodigious degree of resonance and sustain. Plus, you’ll enjoy slick playability and easy bends from the first fret to the 22nd, thanks to the neck’s period-correct profile and 12-inch-radius rosewood fingerboard. And fear not, vintage Firebird fanatics — the 1963 Firebird I comes equipped with the model’s iconic tuning machines, along with a 1-piece Lightning Bar tailpiece. A sole Firebird pickup in the bridge position seals the deal, unleashing a compelling cross between single-coil clarity and humbucker heft that revels in overdrive-drenched blues lines, crisp country leads, and everything in between. So, if you’ve been hankering after a topflight Firebird I, act fast — this Gibson Custom 1963 is part of a non-standard, limited-edition batch, and they’re sure to fly off before you know it
