About this listing
This is an Epiphone Granada E444T built at the Gibson factory located at 225 Parsons Street, Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA in 1964 by Union labor!This guitar plays like a DREAM and stays in tune like a CHAMP! I have owned it for about 10 years and, aside from playing it at home on occasion, I have only used it on 3 or 4 gigs. I have it strung with D'Addario Chromes ECG23 flatwound strings. The frets have had a recent level/crown/polish and a new bone nut, so it plays perfectly all the way up to the 20th fret! Acoustically, this guitar is LOUD; plugged in, the pickup sounds as sweet as you would imagine, as the Melody Maker pickup is built with a 'bar magnet', so there's no drop-out or volume dips, no matter your playing style (view my Youtube video). I have more photos than I was allowed to add, so send me a message if you want to see something specific or have any questions and I'll be glad to help. The guitar is a real player, in overall cosmetically good condition, with more details listed below.Features:*BRAZILIAN ROSEWOOD Fretboard*20 Nickel-Silver Frets (Recently Leveled, Crowned & Polished)*Honduras Mahogany Neck w/ Long Hourglass Headstock & Silk-Screened, Gold Logo*GREAT Neck Angle!
