Epiphone 150th Anniversary

Epiphone was founded almost 30 years before Gibson and is this year celebrating 150 years of making instruments and launching the limited edition Crestwood Custom, Wilshire, Sheraton and Zephyr DeLuxe Regent models.

Crestwood Custom

This Crestwood Custom has a solid mahogany body and a ’60s SlimTaper D-profile neck with an Indian laurel fretboard. The orange-coloured body is California Coral and will certainly turn heads.

Zephyr DeLuxe Regent

Finally, there is the Zephyr DeLuxe Regent and this hollow-body jazz model is a pretty sweet-looking guitar.

It features a multi-layered maple body with a five-piece mahogany 25.5″ scale length neck and an ebony fretboard.

NY

This 150th Anniversary model has a set of Epiphone’s NY humbuckers, plus CTS pots and Switchcraft toggle-switch and jack. This is a pretty rare model and hasn’t been seen for some time, so could be well worth checking out.
