Gibson Firebird V question

Hey guys, am wanting to purchase a Gibson Firebird V 2010, but did Gibson stop putting Ebony fingerboards on the 2010 models? if so, which run did they feature the Ebony boards on their Classic/Polaris white models?

Think I remembered their spec page saying that it was Ebony on the White models and now its just Rosewood across the board of finishes. Does anyone have screencaps of Gibson's spec page or know for certain that they changed the specs for the 2010 models?

THANKS

You might try contacting the company for a custom rid built with a finger board in ebony. But other than that you're not going to get one off the rack.
 
So what your saying is that Firebirds Always featured rosewood fingerboards right? cuz if that's the case then I shall just proceed. Not looking for custom orders, just the regular Firdbird V in white.

It would really suck to put down the money then finding out there's an ebony version, so I wanna be real sure about this. Seeing how the Explorers, Flying Vs and Les Paul studios feature ebony fingerboards, I assumed it would be the same for the Firebirds.

Also not referring to the VII with gold hardware, and was the colour code used to be called "Polaris White"?
