Epiphone 1963 Firebird I Reissue Electric Guitar (Cherry) inc Hard Case

The Epiphone 1963 Firebird I Reissue is an electric guitar built on neck-through construction, the same method Gibson introduced with the original Firebird in 1963. This Cherry model recreates Ray Dietrich's automotive-inspired design with a 9-ply mahogany and walnut neck, solid mahogany wings, and a rosewood fretboard. The single most important feature is the Gibson USA Firebird mini humbucker with Alnico 5 magnets - it delivers the focused, articulate tone players like Eric Clapton and Keith Richards relied on.The fretboard carries 22 medium jumbo frets with mother-of-pearl dot inlays. Kluson planetary banjo-style tuners handle tuning stability, supported by a Graph Tech nut. The Lightning Bar Wraparound bridge provides intonation compensation and strong sustain. Electronics are minimal by design: one volume control, one tone control, a Black Beauty paper-in-oil capacitor, and a Switchcraft output jack. Scale length is 628.65 mm. The guitar ships in a hardshell case for protection.FeaturesNeck-through body: mahogany and walnut with mahogany wingsRosewood fretboard with 22 medium jumbo fretsKluson planetary banjo-style tuners with nickel finishGibson USA Firebird mini humbucker, Alnico 5 magnetsBlack Beauty paper-in-oil capacitor, Switchcraft output jackLightning Bar Wraparound bridge with intonation compensationScale length 628.65 mmHardshell case included
