- A review of a 2001 Gibson Firebird V. The guitar has been upgraded with Seymour Duncan Antiquity Firebird Pickups and Steinberger tuners. The guitar is run into a Clark Beaufort with a Sennheiser e906 mic.
Clean tones are shown for all pickups and dirty tones are created with a Wampler Ecstacy and gain stacked with a Wampler Tumnus Deluxe.
I have the SD Antiquity Firebird pickups on my 2005 Firebird as well, and I agree they're a great fit.
Really glad to hear a proper review on these pickups! Thanks man!!!
Ryan McEwan Thanks and glad it helped!
You got a good one there. Gorgeous wood and a fine build. The SD pups sound great too. Cheers.
Really a good test, thank you Chris.
Jacky MARC Thanks for watching!
Wow great demonstration on a truly awesome guitar! Love how it sounds with these pickups and really nice sounding passage you played starting at around 6:06. Kind of a nice chimney sound and it sounded lovely all clean like that. So if you want to try to replicate the sound of an original 1963 or 1964 Firebird then these are the pickups to get?
Firebirds are such cool guitars, so unique. For a Gibson guitar they're like nothing else that Gibson makes. I've wanted one off and on since the 1990s I finally got around to picking up one last year also a Firebird V 120th anniversary edition, love it, one of my favorite guitars. Thanks for the excellent video and nice playing...👍
Thanks so much for the kind words, friend!! It is a fantastic guitar and yes, these are awesome pickup replacements. Yours sounds awesome! If you have the ceramic pickups, changing them out will bring the sweetness to the tone. Cheers!
Paul Stanley can be seen playing a Firebird 3 on the cover of Kiss Alive and Brian Jones favorite guitar was the Firebird 7 which he used from the Aftermath album and afterwards.
The sweet and clear high gain sound samples from 11:35 to 13:25. Nice licks too, boss. Check 12 45 lick
Excellent demo Chris. Do you still have this Firebird, still loving it? Seems very versatile.
Thanks Walter! I sure do, and recently did some recording with it. Great guitar!
Why did you throw out the original pickups? Were they so bad?
The guitar already had the pickup change done, and trust me, the stock ones are NO match for these, as I've played several with ceramic pickups, and they sound awful.
