Guitar Firebird

With the Futura Firebird Custom Firestorm Shift, Epiphone combines visual boldness and sonic power in a unique format. Its sculpted mahogany body features resolutely modern lines and a slightly contoured back for greater comfort during long performances. The Firestorm Shift chromatic finishes catch the light and subtly change their hue depending on the viewing angle. The 2 ProBucker Ignite humbuckers offer an articulate, precise and dynamic sound, capable of adapting to different styles. This guitar promises to make your presence felt on stage, while remaining a pleasure to play.

Epiphone's Futura Firebird Custom has a glued mahogany neck with a Modern C profile, designed to facilitate fast transitions and smooth bends. Its ebony fingerboard is adorned with 22 medium jumbo stainless steel frets, offering optimum playing comfort and exceptional durability. The combination of a 10" to 14" radius and Super 400-style pearloid markers allows intuitive navigation across the entire neck, making complex chords simple and enjoyable to play.

The LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge and LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece ensure stable intonation and consistent sustain, even during rhythmic passages or powerful attacks. Posi-Lok strap knobs keep the guitar securely in place, preventing unnecessary slippage. These technical details ensure that the Futura Firebird Custom Firestorm Shift remains reliable on stage and in the studio.

The new ProBucker Ignite humbuckers deliver a clear, dynamic and accurate sound. The push/pull volume and tone controls allow you to explore coil splitting and phase options, offering a wide sonic palette. This makes the guitar perfectly suited to different musical styles and performance situations.

The Reverse Firebird headstock features Grover Mini Rotomatic locking tuners and a Graph Tech saddle. The aesthetics are enhanced by the Firebird truss rod cover with Epiphone logo. All these elements contribute to the tuning stability and overall ergonomics of the model.

The chromatic Firestorm Shift finish catches the eye and highlights the unique silhouette of the Futura Firebird body. Depending on the light, the shades change from intense red to warm gold, adding character to every performance. This subtle variation in colour makes the guitar visually expressive, while the polished finish and 7-ply binding of the body underline the attention to detail.

Every Futura Firebird Custom Firestorm Shift guitar comes with a premium gig bag. This protects the guitar when it's on the move, at gigs or rehearsals. The whole package ensures that your instrument remains in perfect condition, ready to deliver a powerful, accurate sound at all times.
