Description
What makes this guitar special? The slim and easy neck and great-sounding pickups give this semi-hollow body Epiphone a ton of value for the money. It features a rich aesthetic including multi-ply binding, gold hardware, and refined inlays to contrast a jet black Ebony finish, but its most notable element is the pair of Alnico Classic humbuckers. In the neck, the tone is warm, rich, and full, with the ability to go from rock and roll to jazz with ease, while the bridge provides a ton of vintage charm and classic jangle. The SlimTaper C neck is a breeze to move around from the nut to the cutaway and plays equally well with a variety of styles and techniques.
Condition: This guitar is in very good condition overall. It does possess various nicks, dings, dents, scratches, and other forms of normal wear, but still looks great for a used guitar. The frets are barely worn and still have a ton of life left in them. The neck is comfortable and the truss rod functions as it should.
