Epiphone De Luxe Masterbilt w/ Kent Armstrong Pickup, HSC

Condition: Excellent

This archtop electric guitar features an aftermarket Kent Armstrong pickup, trapeze tailpiece, 5-piece neck, floating ebony bridge, and diamond pearloid inlays. The top is spruce and the back and sides are flamed maple. The stamped tuners feature ornately shaped tuner buttons, and the headplate features intricate inlays. The guitar is strung with flatwound strings. Nut width 1-11/16" (43mm), scale length 25.5".

There are two small holes drilled in the top near the tailpiece from a previously installed Bigsby vibrato. There are a few scratches on the front and back of the headstock, and the original under-saddle pickup is no longer present. The original battery box and jack are no longer connected to anything inside; the aftermarket neck pickup is connected to a new jack on the lower bout. Overall the guitar is in excellent shape. The case is in overall good shape but shows lots of cosmetic wear to the Tolex covering, as well as some painted designs on the top side.
