Product Description
World famous blues guitarist Joe Bonamassa is also a world-class guitar collector. One of Joe`s pride-and-joys is his prized 1963 Gibson SG Custom. This guitar has some interesting features! For example, the neck it has a unique smoothly contoured neck heel joint and a Dark Cherry Red finish-a rarity for that model and year.
Epiphone’s Joe Bonamassa 1963 SG Custom faithfully recreates the magic of this unique guitar. It features the same smooth neck joint contour making it easier to play at the higher frets, a Maestro Vibrola which helps add some vibrato, some classic SG Custom cosmetics, gold-plated hardware, and three powerful Epiphone ProBucker pickups. They produce an airy, full tone, and when overdriven, they achieve a magical distortion with the slightly enhanced highs that made the originals famous – This is the Joe Bonamassa sound!
Key Features
- Unique Smooth Neck-to-Body Heel Joint – Makes it more comfortable playing the highest frets.
- Maestro Vibrola – The Maestro Vibrola adds vibrato capability to the SG Custom. The Maestro Vibrola offers smooth vibrato effects, with high build quality.
