The Epiphone FT-165 Bard 12-string acoustic guitar was manufactured in Japan during the "Norlin era," primarily between 1971 and 1980. These dreadnought guitars, featuring a three-piece bolt-on neck and often a blue label, were made by the Matsumoku factory, with many examples from this period often cited from 1972 onwards. This guitar is sold as a non functioning project guitar. Please see photos as it needs work to be restored.
