Epiphone Inspired By Custom Shop 1963 Firebird I Reissue Cardinal Red
The Epiphone 1963 Firebird I Reissue in Cardinal Red delivers vintage-spec construction and tone in a modern, accessible format. Built in collaboration with Gibson Custom, this reissue features a 9-ply mahogany/walnut neck-through-body design with mahogany body wings, delivering excellent resonance and sustain. A single Gibson USA Firebird mini humbucker paired with CTS pots, a Mallory capacitor, and Switchcraft jack provides the bright, punchy tone Firebirds are known for. Kluson banjo-style tuners, a wraparound Lightning Bar bridge, and Vintage Gloss finish complete the retro styling, while the included Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom hardshell case ensures it travels safely.
At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the 1963 Firebird I Reissue is a bold, no-fuss rocker that brings vintage tone and looks to players after something iconic and unique.
