I am going to build a guitar and i want to know what kind of pickups are in a gibson firebird, and where can i get them?
They're bright, relatively low-output mini-humbuckers, specially made for the Firebird. The traditional version uses alnico magnets. (Gibson's Firebird V 2010 uses ceramic magnets.) There were and are also versions made with P-90 pickups, but that's probably

What are the production numbers for the Gibson Firebird III in 1963?

I've got a Gibson Firebird III which dates to 1963. Neck through construction (not set neck as featured on the 64's) with 63' date codes on the pots and a serial number of 163418. I'm trying to figure out what the production numbers of this one year neck
Wow, thats a pretty specific question. I would imagine that your serial number is a code. 1 probably means it was made in the US. 63 means it was made in 1963. And 418 is probably either the 418th Firebird 3 made that year, or the 418th guitar made
