Epiphone presents a remarkable rendition of the iconic ES model from the celebrated 1959 collection, crafted in collaboration with a renowned guitar manufacturer. This exquisite instrument embodies the essence of the top-tier ES model, meticulously replicating its dimensions, contours, intricate inlay designs, and unparalleled sound.

The guitar boasts a 5-ply maple/poplar body with a solid maple centerblock for enhanced sustain and feedback control, a one-piece mahogany neck with a comfortable 50s Rounded Medium C profile, and an ebony fretboard adorned with elegant block mother-of-pearl inlays. The headstock features a Split Diamond and Epiphone logo inlays in mother-of-pearl, along with gold tuners and a subtle logo etched on the back.

Powered by a pair of premium humbuckers, this guitar delivers exceptional tone and versatility. The electronics are hand-wired to high-quality potentiometers, capacitors, and a pickup selector switch and output jack. A durable hardshell case is also included, adding to the overall appeal of this remarkable instrument.
