Epiphone Riviera Royal Tan
The Epiphone Riviera—one of Epiphone’s most enduring original classics—is back! First introduced in the early 1960s, its semi-hollow design has been loved by players across genres and generations—including blues greats like Robben Ford and Otis Rush, Lou Reed of The Velvet Underground, and Nick Valensi of The Strokes—all of whom agreed that the Riviera’s legendary ES™ body shape delivered exceptional tone with any pickup combination. The Riviera features a layered maple top, back, and sides, a 3-ply pickguard with the classic metal Epiphone “E,” and is equipped with an Epiphone LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic™ adjustable bridge and a Frequensator tailpiece. Available in Royal Tan and Sparkling Burgundy gloss finishes. Hardshell or EpiLite™ case sold separately. We stand behind our products with Epiphone’s Limited Lifetime Warranty and Gibson Customer Service.
