Description
Gibson Custom Shop 2021 Johnny Winter 1964 Firebird V Murphy Lab Aged, Limited to 125 Worldwide
This limited edition model, of which only 125 were made, is a reissue of the 1964 Firebird V that Johnny Winter famously played.
This striking guitar in a Polaris White finish is famous for being the one he played in the cover photo of the 1976 live album “Captured Live!”.
