Description
Selling my Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor II. This is a true archtop hollow-body guitar designed in collaboration with the jazz legend himself. It delivers that classic, warm "horn-like" jazz tone but is versatile enough for blues, rockabilly, and soul.
The guitar is in Near Mint condition, plays beautifully with a low, comfortable action, and has been kept in a climate-controlled environment.
