❌SOLD❌ Epiphone FT45N Cortez Natural, 1964

❌SOLD❌ Epiphone FT45N Cortez Natural, 1964

Built at the Gibson Kalamazoo plant, the natural-finish Epiphone FT45N Cortez was produced from 1962 to 1969, but it first appeared with a sunburst in 1958. The Epiphone FT45N Cortez was very similar to some Gibson models, particularly the LG-2 (sunburst top) and LG-3 (natural top), which in 1962 became the sunburst B25, and in 1963 the natural B25N. They were built in the same plant and likely on identical forms.

The Gibson ES-135H was the ‘Humbucker’ equipped version of the ES-135, a single-cut Semi-Hollow Archtop built in Memphis from 1991 to 2004. Many of these models used P-100 pickups – a stacked humbucker with the outline of a P-90.

Here is a very nice Gibson ES-335TDC in a classic Cherry finish and the reliable Thinline semi-hollow design, built during 1969 at Kalamazoo, Michigan. The Thinline concept was introduced in 1955 to produce a more compact hollowbody archtop electric instrument less prone to feedback.

❌SOLD❌  Epiphone Masterbilt Melody Tenor Guitar Sunburst, 1933

The Epiphone Masterbilt Melody Tenor guitar was built from 1931 to 1937 in New York, largely supporting the great banjoist migration of the period. In the late 1920’s banjo players, for a variety of reasons, began to move to guitar-based instruments and the Tenor guitar mapped almost directly to tenor banjos.
