The EPIPHONE Original Collection Firebird solid body electric guitar is part of Epiphone’s Inspired by Gibson Collection and the classic Firebird as it was first produced in 1963. Featuring a Mahogany body in a Vintage Sunburst finish, Grover® 18:1 ratio mini tuners, and powered by Epiphone ProBucker™ humbuckers with CTS electronics.
Ever since the arrival of new CEO James «JC» Curleigh in 2018, a wise businessman with a passion for guitars, Gibson quickly gained its nobility back. Large-scale investment were made to renovate manufacturing base, in order to offer better quality instruments, with a more realistic price, and smartly rethought range of products that will satisfy Gibson lovers regardless their budget.
The Epiphone range of instruments follow the same philosophy with :
— recalibrate product architecture based on Original and Inspired By Gibson Collections, leveraging Gibson quality & heritage
— add to Original platform including USA electrics and acoustics and Masterbilt acoustics made overseas
— simplify nomenclature and price/feature benefits – follow Gibson nomenclature for Inspired by Gibson Collection
— influence and inspire new generations of fans with our Artist Collection
— guitars modeled after Gibson shapes will get the classic Epiphone Kalamazoo headstock.
