Used Vintage 1958 Epiphone Texan
Condition Report
This '58 Epiphone Texan sounds beastly, and, though it has a few battle scars, it's dripping with vintage mojo! It shows the typical dings and checking we expect to see on a piece that has this many trips around the sun under its belt. There's a repaired pickguard crack with a large cleat, and there's a crack in the rosette. Also, there's some finish missing along the edge of the fingerboard, on the sides of the body, and the peghead. On the inside, the label is missing, too, and there's a big ding/gouge on the bass-side lower bout. There's minimal fretwear, so it's ready to rip, and it sounds so good you won't be able to put it down! It comes with a non-original heavily-padded gig bag. Also, it's worth noting that this piece has been consigned by the original owner who had it as a child--pretty cool!Specifications:
