Condition NotesWell warn but tastefully so. Some water damage on the back and neck but everything is stable.
This is a great example of a late-’50s Epiphone Texan with early Kalamazoo features. 1958 was an early year for the Kalamazoo factory, and they were still using some New York–made necks on these guitars (such as the case with this guitar). Though it shows wear and has had a few typical repairs, it remains in excellent structural condition and plays very well. The tone is what you’d hope for from a ’50s Kalamazoo-built dreadnought: airy, warm, and responsive. Includes a hard shell case.
*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
