When Gibson hired famed automotive designer Ray Dietrich to create a radical new solid body guitar, rock 'n roll history ensued. With its offset shape, neck-through construction, and scorching mini-humbuckers, the '63 Firebird V became an instant classic. The Gibson Custom Shop is proud to present this exacting replica of a vintage original, which uses authentic contours, dimensions and construction methods for an incredible ownership and playing experience. It features Light Aging by the skilled artisans of the Murphy Lab. The Murphy Lab Light Aged finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of natural play wear, giving it the unique character, vibe, and feel of an original example from the Gibson Golden Era.Model: Murphy Lab 1963 Firebird VFinish Color: Pelham BlueFinish Type: Ultra Light AgedBody Finish: Murphy Lab Aged Nitrocellulose LacquerWeight: 8.77 lbs.Body Wood: Layered Mahogany without Weight ReliefNeck Wood: 9-ply Mahogany and WalnutNeck Joint: Neck-Through ConstructionNeck Shape: Medium CNeck Dimensions: .850 1st - 1.000 12thFingerboard: Indian RosewoodFingerboard Radius: 12"Frets: 22 Authentic Medium-JumboScale Length: 24.75"Width at Nut: 1.687"Nut Material: NylonPickups: 2 Firebird Alnico 5 Mini-HumbuckersControls: 2 Volume, 2 Tone, 3-Way Switch; 500K CTS Potentiometers, Hand-Wired Harness with Black Beauty CapacitorsHardware: Murphy Lab Ultra Light-Aged NickelBridge: ABR-1Tailpiece: Maestro VibrolaSaddle Material: Nickel-Plated BrassTuners: Deluxe Banjo TunersPickguard: 3-Ply White/Black/White Firebird Hot-Stamped Case: Gibson Custom HardshellCOA: Yes
