Epiphone Emperor Swingster Sunrise Orange, built in 2012
In very good condition and playing condition!
The Epiphone Emperor Swingster Hollowbody Electric Guitar has a twangy vintage character in a classic design!
Epiphone based the Emperor Swingster around the body and neck of the venerable Emperor-II (made famous by jazz master Joe Pass), added a special pair of humbucking pickups and installed a parallel/serial wiring scheme that gives you a range of excellent tones from rich and smoky until defined and spicy! The Tune-o-matic bridge/vintage-style tremolo combo gives you amazingly stable performance.
