Gibson Firebird V
Aftermarket Price History
Used-market sales only. Brand New listings excluded.
The Firebird V is the classic sweet spot of the line, and the market knows it. It has enough hardware, enough presence and enough history to feel like the real Firebird without drifting into ornate excess. Buyers tend to be strict about originality because this is the benchmark version, not a forgiving oddball.

Market Report
Used examples typically trade between $1,850 and $2,500; anything under $1,850 is worth a close look. Prices are down 15.8% vs. 12 months ago. Some price variation month to month, but within a normal range.
Turnover is steady at ~9/month. Supply is consistent enough that patient buyers can find options without rushing.
The market isn't particularly condition-sensitive (~9% spread). A player-grade example trades close to a clean one.

Three-pickup step up: vibrola and three mini-humbuckers — the most ornate Firebird spec at a higher price.
Lower-priced two-pickup alternative: similar Firebird brief at a higher price historically — worth comparing.
High-end step up: Custom-grade appointments for buyers who want more than the production V.
