An Epiphone original makes a comeback.
First introduced in the 1960s, the Epiphone Riviera has been a popular choice among guitarists of many genres and generations, including blues greats Robben Ford and Otis Rush, as well as Lou Reed of the Velvet Underground. Reimagined for modern guitarists, this classic electric features updated finish options along with a layered maple construction, Epiphone PRO mini humbuckers and Epiphone’s LockTone Tune-o-matic adjustable bridge. The Riviera from Epiphone produces a variety of great tones suitable for any genre and, just like the legendary guitarists before them, is ready to be discovered by the next generation of players.
