B3 Phoenix V Faded Cherry Burst
Handbuilt in California by Gene Baker — one of Fender’s first Custom Shop Master Builders — the B3 Phoenix V is a player’s dream that merges Firebird-style attitude with modern precision and boutique-grade craftsmanship. The Faded Cherry Burst nitrocellulose finish highlights a beautiful black limba body and neck, bringing warmth, clarity, and rich midrange response. The rosewood fingerboard, cream binding, and aged nickel hardware complete a stunning vintage-inspired look. Loaded with Lollar pickups — a J Street in the bridge and Firebird models in the middle and neck — the Phoenix V delivers articulate chime, snappy attack, and smooth overdrive. The VT 5-way push/pull wiring adds tons of tonal range while keeping controls intuitive. Every B3 guitar from Vera Guitars is professionally setup and stage-ready out of the box.
