2004 Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor-II Pro Hollowbody Guitar – Natural with Case

2004 Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor-II Pro – Hollowbody Archtop – Natural – Rosewood Fingerboard – Original Hardshell Case

The Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor-II Pro is a beautifully crafted hollowbody archtop designed as a tribute to legendary jazz guitarist Joe Pass, one of the most influential and accomplished jazz guitarists of all time.

Known as the "President of Bebop Guitar," Joe Pass was celebrated for his extraordinary chord vocabulary, melodic improvisation, and solo guitar arrangements. The Emperor-II Pro captures the classic jazz-guitar character associated with Joe while offering a versatile feature set suitable for everything from traditional jazz and blues to modern electric styles.

The Emperor-II Pro features a true archtop hollowbody construction with hand-scalloped bracing and a sound post, helping produce its warm, resonant acoustic character. It is equipped with ProBucker humbucking pickups with coil-tapping, providing additional tonal versatility beyond the traditional warm jazz tones associated with a hollowbody archtop.

Finished in a beautiful Natural finish, this example has a classic, understated appearance that allows the archtop's wood character to take center stage.
