I hope too see your show when you come to Rochester MN

Awesome video have a wonderful day ❤😊

Yes...a Firebird V......from Johnny W. to Joe B. U gotta luv it...!!! Sounds great Cheers

Sweet sounding Axe !! Amazing guitar player !! 🤘🤘🎸✌️❤️

Joe, you should see what I did to your Epiphone ‘64 Firebird one “reissue” from 2016, 😄not one piece of original hardware left, new Dunlop frets, highest 2 frets are scalloped, actual Waverly Banjo tuners (mind blowing, so easy to tune, light weight radical ratio) 3 different Seymour Duncan pickups with 4 tones each, off SD PU bezel switches, stacked volume/tone for each and a Tone Pros wrap tail bridge, bone nut Black Pick guard. AND, I’m getting it PLEK’d after building it 4-5 years ago your $800 base price enabled my custom Firebird dream come true THANK YOU. I could not buy what you helped me build. Truth is I rarely use all the tones I could get, but it’s the ultimate axe, if I split all 3, I can get strat tones, parallel or series is my preference Because I hate hum, sustain for days, we’ll worth the time and expense 😅

Firebird V, It's HOT!

Always wanted one

The bird is the word!

Gawddd damnnnnn!❤🤟🎸

I need this Firebird Joe B

Great tones! Is it a lead spec Plexi small box Marshall you played through?

I had one, I was told 64/65 w 3 p-90’s and maestro. Odd thing was, it was a set neck. All others I’ve seen were neck-thru

I’m guessing that vibrato system is more cosmetic than functional. I’m thinking about going to one of your shows just to hear a talented musician playing vintage gear.

Wow that's a Fender-ish headstock. They couldn't find some othe shape for 6-on-a-side tuners?

It's not beat up, it's been loved and used for it's intended purpose. Those aren't scratches or wear spots, they're the guitar"s personality. Kinda like "smile lines" on an elderly gentleman's face!!
