1966/1969 Epiphone Sorrento E452T – Gibson/Kalamazoo-Made – Original Case – Fresh Setup

Up for sale is a vintage Epiphone Sorrento E452T, serial number 857910, in its original case. Based on Gibson/Epiphone serial number ranges, this serial number appears to place the guitar in the 1966/1969 Kalamazoo-made era.

This guitar is being sold on behalf of my parents. It is fully functional, plays well, and sounds great. It was recently restrung and professionally set up by Appalachian Bluegrass Shoppe in Catonsville, Maryland, so it is ready to play and enjoy.

Condition

The guitar is in very nice vintage condition overall, especially considering its age. It is fully functional and has no known playability issues. The electronics work properly, the guitar sounds good, and it has just received a fresh setup.

That said, this is a vintage instrument from the 1960s, so it does show normal cosmetic wear, finish checking, small dings, scuffs, scratches, tarnish, and other age-related wear consistent with an instrument of this age. Please review all 11 photos carefully, as they are part of the description and show the cosmetic condition in detail.

I have done my best to photograph and describe the guitar honestly. Please ask any questions before purchasing.
