  • Geoff Metts and Ben Rice put the all new Gibson Johnny Winter 1964 Firebird V through its paces.

    "One of the most notable proponents of the Gibson Firebird, blues-rock legend Johnny Winter, was well known for his love of the design. This 1964 Firebird V is a replica of one of Johnny's most well-known Firebirds. The specs reveal an astonishing level of detail and accuracy, from the plugged holes from the removed Maestro™ Vibrola™ to the faded Firebird logo on the pickguard, right down to the missing reflector on the rhythm tone knob. It also features a 9-ply mahogany/walnut neck-through-body with mahogany wings, a bound Indian rosewood fretboard with trapezoid inlays, two Alnico 5 Firebird pickups, classic "banjo" tuners, and a Murphy Lab custom-aged Polaris White finish."

    Always a treat to hear Ben play! I must say, though, that I have never understood "relic-ing" an instrument. But I'm clearly in the minority on this point, since a lot of people buy them.

      Its more or less about a "vibe". Just another thing that can make a guitar call to you. As far as the Gibson custom shop signature guitars go, it's about making an exact replica down to the last detail.

    Pups are not happening. Doesn’t sound like a ‘64. Gibson should have fitted this axe with the Mojotone Johnny Winter Signature Firebird Pickups.
