The specialist's opinion
When Gibson hired famous car designer Ray Dietrich to create a new solid body guitar, they had no idea how much they would turn rock 'n Roll history upside down.
With its quirky shape, through-neck construction, and mini-humbuckers, the '63 Firebird V became an instant classic.
The Gibson Custom Shop is proud to present this exact replica of a vintage original, with authentic dimensions and construction methods for an incredible playing experience.
