This 26 year old bird is freshly professionally set up, dialed in and ready to fly! 

Ready to ignite your riffs with a guitar that’s practically a time machine? This 1999 Gibson '63 Firebird V Reissue in Vintage Sunburst is your ticket to rock ‘n’ roll royalty! With its fiery curves and smoldering tone, this axe is a blazing tribute to the '63 classic, ready to spark your creativity and set stages ablaze. Freshly brought back from over-seas (Japan), this super killer Gibson Firebird V reissue is a rock solid player with mucho mojo. It has a great well balanced feel/sound, looks killer and plays almost effortlessly. It was originally exported to Yamano in Japan where it was babied its entire life.  It has a great sounding matched set of Gibson mini humbuckers and can deliver a big bold sound out of a smaller compact size and really smoke when pushed. These pickups were made from 1974 until the end of the 80's and are considered some of the best they have made. When you roll the volume back a little mellow mid 60's creamy tone pours out and delivers a true vintage sound and feel. The neck is fast and comfortable in your hands with a slim D profile.  

This beauty is in *very good vintage condition*, with just enough character to tell tales of epic jams. Minor play wear, subtle polish marks, and a few small nicks add to its road-worn charm, while a rock solid headstock repair is like a battle scar from a killer solo. Overall, it’s in really nice shape, ready to soar like a phoenix from the ashes of ordinary guitars.

Why settle for a plain Jane when you can wield a Firebird? Its mahogany neck and body deliver a warm, resonant tone that’ll make your chords sing and your leads sting. The dual mini-humbuckers pack a punch, offering clarity and bite that’ll have you flying high across genres—blues, rock, or even a little jazz to keep things classy. The rosewood fretboard feels smooth as a summer breeze, and the headstock’s iconic shape is sure to turn heads faster than a double-take at a hot rod show.

This Firebird’s got the looks and the sound to make you the brightest spark on stage. Don’t let this one fly away—grab it before someone else fans the flames of their collection! Ready to burn up the fretboard? Contact us now and let this vintage vixen make your music take wing.


It will ship professionally packed and fully insured with signature required for delivery. Please check out our feedback and rest assured you will get a great guitar delivered quickly and as described.

Terms For Returns & Re-Stocking Fee’s

We recognize and accept a 7 day return policy as per Reverb guidelines, BUT intentions of the return must be communicated in writing within 3 day of receiving the guitar as indicated by the tracking. Unless the guitar is not as described, ORIGINAL & RETURN SHIPPING COSTS INCURRED (NOT CHARGES) WILL NOT BE REFUNDED. There is a 10% Re-stocking fee for ALL guitars that are returned for ANY reason outside of damage from shipping or it arrives not as described. Please note that we record demo videos to make sure our guitars go out exactly as we describe them with zero issues. We understand that feeling comfortable is vital to the purchase of a guitar/bass so in any case, additional measurements or in hand descriptions are available prior to purchase/shipping. Thats said, guitars travel a great distance some times and in transit things can happen. Also guitars acclimate to new environments and this can cause a need for a new set up or minor adjustment. It is acceptable and normal if there is for instance a tiny bit of buzzing or the need to adjust a truss rod. We are in south Florida and if you are in a colder or less humid environment it is almost to be expected. Please read our feedback and see what our customers say. The guitar MUST BE RETURNED IN THE EXACT CONDITION it was advertised/received or it is subject to additional costs & or repair fees. We are not a big chain shop, I hope you understand. If you are uncomfortable with these terms please do not purchase. There are plenty big chain shops that can absorb free trials and shipping.
