Introduced in 1962, the "ES-120T" was a student-model archtop featuring a non-cutaway, thin-body design with a 16-inch lower bout and a single-coil pickup; it was essentially a more casual version of the widely varied "ES-125" series. Positioned similarly to the "Melody Maker" in the hollow-body lineup, this model was also produced as the Epiphone "E444T Granada" in the same factory at the time. This particular instrument is a 1967 "ES-120T," a somewhat rare example featuring a white pickguard. It boasts a mahogany neck, rosewood fretboard, 16-inch laminated maple body, and a Melody Maker-style pickup, along with two potentiometers dated 1966 and a 0.02μF ceramic capacitor. Its most distinctive feature is the large pickguard assembly; the combination of the Melody Maker pickup—which gives it a slightly "toy-like" or budget-friendly charm—and the pale 60s-style sunburst finish creates an incredibly cute aesthetic. The "narrow neck" (approx. 40mm nut width) typical of this era features a naturally rounded profile that feels comfortable for any player. Its appeal lies in its casual nature—lightweight and responsive, with an enjoyable acoustic resonance that makes you want to pick it up and play at a moment's notice. The single-coil pickup offers lower output and a clearer tone than a P-90, beautifully highlighting the model's signature lighthearted and charming sound character. A strap pin has already been installed on the neck heel. While it shows signs of age—such as attractive weather checking and minor scratches—there is no unsightly damage to the finish, and the guitar remains in excellent condition with its original luster intact. The neck is in great shape (including the truss rod), the frets are in good condition, and the action is set up for comfortable playability. Please be sure to check it out. A chipboard case is included
