Overview

1964 Firebird V based on the guitar played by Johnny Winter.

One of the most notable proponents of the Gibson Firebird, blues-rock legend Johnny Winter was well-known for his love of the design. This 1964 Firebird V is based on one of Johnny's beloved Firebirds, recreated with an astonishing level of detail and accuracy, including plugged holes from the removed Maestro Vibrola and the faded Firebird logo on the pickguard, as well as the missing reflector on the rhythm tone knob. It also features a five-piece mahogany/walnut neck-through-body with mahogany wings, a bound Indian rosewood fretboard with trapezoid inlays, two Alnico 5 Firebird pickups, classic "banjo" tuners, and a Murphy Lab custom-aged finish.
