Celebrate Epiphone's 150th anniversary with this classic solidbody.
The latest Crestwood Custom electric guitar celebrates Epiphone's 150th anniversary. It features an asymmetrical solid mahogany double-cutaway body that gives players unhindered upper fret access, a mahogany neck with a comfortable ’60s SlimTaper D profile, and an Indian laurel fretboard with oval inlays. The headstock is the popular "Batwing" style, with Wilkinson six-on-a-plate inline tuners with metal buttons. The electronics feature a pair of made-in-the-USA Gibson Mini Humbuckers that are wired to CTS potentiometers, and a Switchcraft 3-way toggle switch and 1/4" output jack. An Epiphone Tremotone vibrato tailpiece gives you extra expressive capabilities. The included 150th Anniversary Historic hardshell case features an Epiphone 150th Anniversary logo.
The Crestwood first appeared in 1958, and it was renamed Crestwood Custom in 1959. The Crestwood was Epiphone’s first two-pickup solidbody electric guitar design.
