All about the 1963 Firebird V:
The Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom 1963 Firebird V delivers vintage Firebird specifications at an accessible price, including a 9-ply neck-through-body made of mahogany and walnut with mahogany body wings to either side. Kluson® planetary geared “banjo” tuners anchor the strings at the headstock, while an Epiphone ABR bridge and newly redesigned Maestro Vibrola with an engraved Epiphone logo hold things down at the other end. The electronics are also premium and include Gibson USA Firebird mini humbucker™ pickups with Alnico 5 magnets, CTS® potentiometers, Mallory™ capacitors, and a Switchcraft® 3-way pickup selector toggle switch and 1/4” output jack, giving this incredible Epiphone electric guitar not only the look but also the sound of a classic Firebird V. An Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom hardshell case is also included so you’re safe to travel between gigs!
All about the Epiphone Firebird:
Epiphone’s Inspired by Gibson Firebird™ rocks a reverse body and headstock design as originally introduced in 1963 and was Gibson’s first neck-through-body design. The traditional 9-ply mahogany/walnut neck-through-body provides rich, warm tonality and incredible sustain. A SlimTaper neck with a bound, Indian laurel fingerboard and acrylic trapezoid fingerboard inlays offers fast and effortless playability. The newly refreshed Firebird is outfitted with a set of ProBucker FB720 pickups to recapture the scorching output and searing tones of the original voice for which the Firebird is known, and Grover® 18:1 ratio mini tuners. Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Original models feature a rolled neck for a comfortable feel, GraphTech® NuBone® nut, era-appropriate wiring, and CTS pots. An optional hardshell is also available.

I have both and it’s amazing how good the epiphone is but you have to get the wiring pots caps switch and I can’t remember if we needed to change the output jack, frets polished The epiphone pickups sound great. They are a little fuller than the Gibson ones, I can see how some might prefer them. It depends on what vibe/tone you’re going for, they are both fantastic. I highly recommend getting the epiphone.

The difference is in the pickups. I have the sunburst version. Great guitar. But you can’t beat the genuine Gibson pickups.

The pickups dont justify the $6500 plus price difference. You can buy the OEM firebird pickups from Gibson for about $120 each.

I thought the Epiphone pickups sounded better. The Gibson pickups sounded a little weak and empty.

The pickups on the Epiphone seem to have more midrange bite. Maybe they’re not as period accurate, but I thought they sounded better. There was always variation in vintage pickups anyway; sometimes they would get left on the winding machine a little longer and would be hotter and more midrange-y.

And Don’t forget Phill Manzanaria of Roxy Music who plays a Firebird 7 in red and Joe Bonamassa who plays a Firebird 1. One of my favourite guitars, even if a bit on the large size!
