EpiphoneFirebird Left-Handed Electric Guitar - Wine Red

Few electric guitars make a visual statement as immediate as the Firebird. Introduced in 1963 and shaped by automotive designer Ray Dietrich, its reverse body and headstock set it apart from anything that came before. As part of Epiphone’s Inspired by Gibson collection, this left-handed Firebird stays true to the original concept with a nine-ply mahogany and walnut neck-through-body construction and a pair of ProBucker FB720 Firebird pickups, delivering long sustain, fast response, and a clear, hum-free voice in a player-focused build. Neck-Through Construction Enhances Sustain and Resonance This Firebird features a traditional nine-ply mahogany and walnut neck-through-body design, with the neck and center section formed from a continuous core. Mounting the tuners, pickups, bridge, and tailpiece to this central structure promotes consistent resonance and strong sustain. The result is an even response across the fretboard with notes that ring clearly and hold their presence. ProBucker FB720 Pickups Deliver a Focused, Hum-Free Voice A matched pair of ProBucker FB720 Firebird pickups with Alnico 2 magnets captures the bright, articulate tone associated with classic Firebird models. Built to original Firebird specifications, these pickups use blade magnets and a steel reflector plate rather than traditional pole pieces. The design produces crisp highs, tight lows, and strong note separation while remaining free of unwanted noise. High-quality CTS potentiometers provide smooth control when shaping clean tones or pushing an amp into overdrive. SlimTaper Neck and Purpose-Built Hardware Support Playability The SlimTaper C neck profile offers a fast, comfortable feel that supports fluid movement along the 22-fret bound rosewood fingerboard. Pearloid trapezoid inlays add classic visual detail without sacrificing clarity under stage lighting. LockTone Tune-O-Matic and Stop Bar hardware, Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners, and a Graph Tech nut work together to maintain stable tuning and reliable intonation through extended playing sessions. A Firebird Built for Consistent Performance From its multi-ply neck-through construction to its nickel hardware and straightforward electronics, this left-handed Firebird is designed for dependable performance over time. As part of the Inspired by Gibson collection, it maintains a clear connection to a landmark design while focusing on playability and accessibility for modern players. Finally, a premium gig bag is included for protection during transport to rehearsals or gigs.
