 A t Epiphone we like to think we are still “The House of Stathopoulo.”
Like the modern day Epiphone, Epi Stathoupoulo was a fierce and scrappy
competitor and innovator who was granted his first patent at the age of
22. Today, Epiphone continues Epi’s tradition of making innovative break-
throughs and classic styles affordable to every musician. Our fans range
from Les Paul to Tak Matsumoto, from the Beatles to Dwight Yoakam,
from Joe Bonamassa to Slash and beyond. Epiphone instruments have
always been made for the working musician whether you’re performing
five miles from home or 500.
Epiphone fans don’t buy our instruments to hang on the wall or put in
a glass case. Our instruments are built to be played. Sometimes Epiphone
has innovated with new styles and new electronics. Other times, we’ve
innovated by refining ideas readily available to other makers who just didn’t
try hard enough. Business has changed a lot since Epi set up his first
showroom in New York City. Today, our instruments are played all over
the world.
However at Epiphone, we know that if you sell instruments, you won’t
be in business long if you don’t get to know the people who buy your
instruments. We know our players. They own electric guitars, acoustic
guitars, banjos, and mandolins for every occasion and we’re the company
that meets their every need.
We understand that musicians often look back before they go forward.
That’s why for every historical model we re-issue, we also give you some-
thing new. Not just new models but practical and revolutionary refine-
ments like the Epiphone LockTone™ Stopbar and Tune-o-matic system or
our new improved Tremotone™ Tremolo. While other guitar makers cling
to one or two styles to hold their brand together, Epiphone has thrived on
making a wide range of instruments for every music genre, from rock and
bluegrass to jazz to metal.
And like our founder, we know you can’t fool the customer. If we make
a great instrument, musicians will tell everyone they know. If we make a
poor instrument, they’ll never let us forget it.
Since our merger with Gibson Musical Instruments in 1957, Epiphone
has continued to innovate, experiment, and build on our mutual history of
making quality instruments. Our innovations have also been felt in the busi-
ness world. In 2002, Epiphone was the first American guitar company
to design and build our own production factory in Qingdao, China. To meet
the growing demand for great Epiphone instruments, a second factory
was opened in 2008.
In some overseas instrument factories, you’ll find the same parts and
pickups used on many different brands. The only way to discern one
company from another is the decal. At our Epiphone factory we only make
Epiphone instruments.
Every Epiphone factory employs our own trained luthiers, designers,
and a team of Quality Control experts who oversee all phases of produc-
tion. With our main offices located in Nashville, Tennessee combined with
inspection and distribution centers in the Netherlands and Japan, over
18 Entertainment and Artist relations offices worldwide, a global sales
and distributor network, and our dedicated retail partners, Epiphone
employs thousands of people around the globe dedicated to making every
instrument we sell perfect. Our name is everything. And the success of
our strategy can be measured in our unprecedented growth and super-
lative reviews.
In Epi’s time, Gibson was Epiphone’s greatest competitor. Now the two
greatest guitar companies in the world are making the best instruments
in the world. As part of the world famous Gibson family of brands, we are
proud to provide you with exceptional instruments, 24/7/365 customer
service, and great value. Epiphone’s President Jim Rosenberg put it best:
“Epiphone is still the House of Stathopoulo. We’re designers. We’re play-
ers. We’re mavericks. And, we’re passionate about everything we do.”

 Limited Edition 50th Anniversary “1961” Casino™ TD Outfit
Epiphone brings back the first Casino in celebration of it's 50th anniversary - the "1961" Casino.
Including the pre-Gibson era triangle metal logo badge on the headstock, Epiphone has faithfully
reproduced the features not found on Casinos produced after 1961. Attention to detail includes
the correct "burst" patterns on front and back, a neck joint at the 16th fret (instead of the 17th),
vintage style tuners with small plastic buttons and the historically accurate rectangle "blue label"
inside the sound hole. In the neck position is a Gibson USA P-90R dog-ear pickup and in the bridge
position is the Gibson USA P-90T. They feature vintage two-conductor, braided, shielded wiring and
P-90 black plastic covers and offer a stellar combination of high output and biting treble response.
Single Other electronics faithful to the original include a Switchcraft™ 3-way toggle and 1/4" output jack.
The body is made of 5-layer Maple/Birch with a solid Mahogany SlimTaper™ neck attached using
Coils
the traditional mortise and tenon neck joint hand-fitted and glued to the body using TiteBond™
glue. Hardware includes a tune-o-matic bridge and your choice of either a Trapeze tailpiece (TD)
or Epiphone's new reissue of the original Tremotone™ vibrato (TDV).
To top it all off, each 1961 Casino features an original-style
hard case with gray exterior and blue plush interior
and a numbered certificate of authenticity.

Dot Royale The Epiphone Dot was introduced over ten years ago, and since then, Epiphone's version of the venerable Gibson ES-335 “Dot” has been wowing guitar players all
over the world. Now, the Dot Royale gives the ES-335 Dot tradition a whole new makeover with a stunning pearl white finish, gold sparkle binding and gold hardware totally unlike any-
thing Epiphone has offered before. The Dot Royale is constructed of premium laminated Maple including a Mahogany center block and a hand-fitted, glued-in Mahogany neck. Other
details include a Rosewood fingerboard with traditional “Dot” inlay, quality electronic parts including full-size, 1” 500K Ohm potentiometers, Epiphone's all-metal pickup selector switch,
and heavy-duty output jack. Its fabulous semi-hollowbody sound is voiced by a pair of real Alnico Classic™ Humbucker pickups. The Royale Dot sports gold hardware including premium
16:1 ratio Grover® machine heads for superior tuning stability and accuracy.
™
Wildkat Royale Epiphone was never afraid to do something out of the ordinary. With no notable changes in Archtop design by anybody in decades, Epiphone took the Archtop
and practically married it to a solid body guitar. The Wildkat Royale now takes its place among our all-time great designs. The Wildkat Royale’s innovative design starts with a solid
piece of warm, sustain-rich Mahogany that is computer-routed to create an acoustic guitar-like body except with a “center block” area like an ES-335. The body is then covered with a
beautiful pearl white finish with gold sparkle binding and gold hardware to create a semi-hollow body masterpiece. It features a Rosewood fingerboard and an authentic gold B70
licensed Bigsby® vibrato for even more sonic versatility. The vintage voice of this ‘Kat comes from a pair of Epiphone gold "dog ear" P- 90 Classic pickups. All of this great design
comes together with fabulous vintage semi-hollow tone and great sustain plus, being slightly larger than a Les Paul and smaller than an ES-335 size, it's lightweight and really comfort-
able to play!

Broadway™ The Broadway features the same big body of its sister the Emperor Regent, but has two full-size Humbucking pickups plus individual volume and tone controls as well

Joe Pass Emperor II™ Late guitar legend Joe Pass lends his name to one of our most popular archtops. The comfortable to play Emperor II is slightly smaller in
dimensions than the jumbo Jazz-boxes, and features a single trapeze tailpiece for traditional styling and twin Humbucking pickups for unmatched tone.
Emperor Regent™ Back in the day of the big bands, guitars got bigger so they would be louder and heard over the horn section. Epiphone answered that call with big,
beautiful Jazz-boxes like the Emperor Regent. A select Spruce top and a floating Mini-Humbucking pickup at the neck give the Regent a warm, rich sound with enough acoustic volume

Wildkat The Wildkat is from Epiphone’s exclusive “Kat” family of electric hollow-bodies. These guitars are larger in size than a Les Paul, but still smaller in size compared to a

B.B. King Lucille™ You can own a legendary guitar. Designed by the reigning “King of the Blues” himself, B. B. King, the Lucille is similar to the ES-335 semi-hollowbody guitar
but without f-holes. The result is a guitar with a very unique voice that is less prone to feedback at high volume levels. It also features a TP-6 fine-tuning tailpiece, two humbucking pick-
ups, six position Vari-tone switch and stereo outputs. To top it off, her name is elegantly inlaid in mother-of-pearl on the headstock.
™
The Dot The ES semi-hollow body guitars from Gibson first appeared in 1958. Since then the ES-335 “Dot” has been a must-have guitar in every arsenal. Our version, the
Epiphone Dot, makes this icon guitar available to players everywhere. It features twin Humbucking pickups and the Tune-o-matic™ bridge/Stopbar tailpiece combo for great tone and
sustain. (Also available Lefty, CH)
™
Sheraton II “A price/performance ratio that seems too good too be true.” - Guitar World, Dec. 1994 Our highly rated Sheraton II is fully appointed and a dream to
play. This classic semi-hollow body guitar features all the top-of-the-line Epi styling and combines the sustain of a solid-body and the warmth of a hollow-body. (Also available Lefty, VS)
Nick Valensi Riviera P-94 The guitarist from acclaimed New York band The Strokes lends his name and approval to an all new Riviera. This guitar is based on
Nick’s 90’s “Riv” which he fitted with Gibson P-94s to obtain his unique signature sound. The Gibson P-94 uses the same enamel coated vintage wire and Alnico-V magnets as
the P-90 but in a traditional humbucker-size housing. The P-94 has higher output and more sustaining qualities than single-coil pickups and gives plenty of bite when needed.
Yet the “94s” have enough response to allow subtle nuances for enhanced dynamics. Check out www.The Strokes.com for tour and band info.
™
Casino Undoubtedly, one of Epiphone’s greatest contributions to music, the Casino is famous for its sparkling sound heard on some of the most revered records in history.
More popular today than ever, its secret is its thin-line full-hollow construction, twin P-90 pickups and Mahogany set-neck.

 “Inspired by” John Lennon Casino™ Outfit
The same key features of Epiphone's acclaimed John Lennon Signature U.S.A. Casinos but at a more
affordable price. These two "Inspired by" versions combine the cost-effective workmanship of Epiphone's
own factory in Asia with original Gibson U.S.A. electronics including classic P-90 pickups with dogear,
nickel plated covers and a Switchcraft™ made toggle and output jack. Attention to detail includes the
neck joint at the 16th fret (instead of the 17th), vintage style tuners with small metal buttons, a black
washer around the toggle switch and the historically accurate rectangle "blue label" inside the sound
hole. In 1968, John had his Casino sanded down to the bare wood and covered with a thin, dull finish.
P-90 During that time, he also replaced the tuners with Gold Grovers and removed the pickguard. The
Single "Inspired by" Revolution Casino is a reproduction of this stripped guitar as it also remains today. Both
Coils "Inspired by" Casinos include a hard case while the Revolution version also includes the unattached pick-
guard and mounting bracket. These new "Inspired by" Casinos capture the essence of the 1960's and
The Beatles with their authentic looks, specifications and one-of-kind sound and feel that only a Casino
has. Includes a deluxe hardshell case.

As with all Epiphone Lennon guitars, a portion of the proceeds from the sale of each
goes to the BMI Foundation for the John Lennon Scholarship Fund which supports
music education.

Tom Delonge Signature ES-333 Built to the Blink-182 guitarist’s specifications, the semi-hollow body combines traditional ES construction and styling with the high-
output tone and crunch of a Gibson USA Dirty Fingers™ humbucking pickup. This now legendary semi-hollow body design allows for a combination of solid-body sustain and acoustic-like
resonance. However, Tom’s guitar takes a different direction with the installation of only one very high-output Gibson Dirty Fingers humbucking pickup mounted in the bridge position
that is capable of producing unprecedented distortion yet excellent clarity at high volumes. In addition to a “non standard” pickup controlled by only one volume knob, the Tom Delonge
sports a non-traditional cream colored racing stripe down the center on a brown body. A natural finished, Mahogany neck with a glued-in neck joint is attached to the body at the 17th
fret and includes a Rosewood fingerboard with mother-of-pearl “dot” inlays. Sustain, tone and tuning stability are maintained by Epiphone’s new LockTone™ tune-o-matic/stopbar system
and precision Grover™ machine heads.
™
“Worn” Dot Studio Epiphone’s DOT Studio brings new “stripped down” looks, new functionality and new affordability to Epi’s semi-hollowbody electric guitars.
The hot, open-coil Alnico-V humbucking pickups and simplified electronics - just a single tone and single volume control - make this guitar a ready-rocker with killer value!

Les Paul® Ultra-III We all know that deep down, most guitarists are traditional. That's why we designed the new Les Paul Ultra-III with the same look and features of a
traditional Les Paul but with new technology. At the heart of the new Ultra-III are two pickup systems. Powering the first are Epiphone's new ProBucker™ humbucking pickups patterned
after Gibson's famous BurstBuckers™. With authentic 18% nickel silver base and cover, Elektrisola wire, accurate bobbins, slugs and screws and sand casted Alnico-II magnets, they
replicate that classic "Patent Applied For" airy tone that defined rock and roll. The second system features Shadow™ Germany's patented NanoMag™ pickup embedded discretely at
the end of the fingerboard. Featuring samarium cobalt magnets, an air coil and active electronics, this low-impedance pickup captures all the body acoustics and string harmonics.
Together, you get humbucker-driven rock crunch as well as shimmering acoustic-like tones and everything in-between. Built discretely into the bridge pickup mounting ring is a full-func-
tion, chromatic tuner. Push it's ON/OFF button and sound is muted and the tuner activated. Also, the Ultra-III's NanoMag Volume knob now doubles as an A/B switch - with no delay
and no "pop." The Ultra-III features three outputs. Using the standard 1/4" MONO output, both the Humbuckers and NanoMag are mixed into one signal. Plug another 1/4" cable into
it's STEREO output, and the Humbuckers are routed through one cable and the NanoMag the other. In this way, you can send the Humbuckers to your favorite guitar amp and the
NanoMag to the PA or an acoustic guitar amp. Using the A/B switch, you can now change "on-the-fly" between the two outputs. The third output is USB. Using a USB cable (included),
you can go direct to your computer and use applications such as Native Instruments GuitarRig™ 4LE (software included) to simulate a variety of amplifiers and effects. GuitarRig also
features a recorder, a metronome, a tuner and more. Maintaining the same basic specifications of our Standard Plustops, including a solid Mahogany body with glued-in Mahogany neck
and comfortable SlimTaper™ neck profile, a flame Maple veneer top and Rosewood fingerboard, results in a guitar with classic Les Paul tone and sustain. It's also equipped with our
LockTone™ locking Tune-o-matic™ bridge/Stopbar system, as well as Grover™ 16:1 machine heads for tuning accuracy and stability. If you want a versatile professional instrument
designed for live performance or studio and capable of both Les Paul crunch and real acoustic-like tones, the Epiphone Ultra-III is it!
®
Les Paul Standard Plustop Les Paul changed the world with his “Log” prototype guitar using Epiphone body parts combined with a solid piece of wood. Based upon
Les’ first solid-body guitar, the Les Paul Standard Plus features a solid Mahogany body, Flame Maple top, Alnico Classic™ Humbucking pickups and the sustain-pumping Tune-o-matic™
bridge/Stopbar tailpiece combination. For over 50 years, the undisputed reigning king of solid-body guitars. (Also available Left-hand, HS)

Les Paul® Tribute™ Plus Outfit Epiphone's history and association with Les Paul dates way back to the days when Les, working at the Epiphone factory on 14th St. in
New York, created the world's first electric guitar. Over the years, Les continued to work closely with Epiphone by reviewing new product ideas and offering suggestions. The NEW
Epiphone "Tribute" Les Paul Standards honor that relationship by combining "as good as it gets" performance and features with legendary Epiphone quality and value.The Tribute LP's
feature a solid Mahogany back with a solid, carved hard Maple cap for the ultimate combination of warmth and bite. The solid Mahogany neck with glued-in joint extends well into the
neck pickup cavity for maximum neck-to-body contact. The “Tribute” sports the traditional “D” profile "1960's" SlimTaper™ neck. Powering the "Tributes" is a pair of Gibson USA '57
Classic humbuckers. The '57 Classics are faithful replicas of the pickups that helped define the music of the late 1950s, featuring Gibson's special Alnico II magnet, nickel plated pole
pieces, nickel slugs, maple spacers and vintage-style braided wiring. The '57 Classic gives you a tone that is warm and subtle with full, even response that doesn't hold back when you
need that classic Gibson humbucker crunch! The '57 Classic Plus is the perfect bridge pickup and mimics humbuckers of that era that received a few extra turns of wire. This treat-
ment gives the pickup slighter higher output without sacrificing its rich, vintage tone. In combination, this pair of humbuckers overdrives tube preamps to a smooth level of saturation
without becoming overpowering. We’ve added two push/pull tone pots to allow for series/parallel pickup switching. All Les Paul, plus a huge palette of extra tonal possibilities at your
fingertips. Other upgrades include a U.S. Switchcraft™ 3-way toggle, Mallory-150 tone capacitors, Epiphone StrapLocks, 16:1 ratio premium Grover™ locking tuners and a premium
hard case.
®
Les Paul Black Beauty As its name implies, The Les Paul Black Beauty is the pinnacle of elegance in looks and tone. With its third Humbucking pickup in the middle
position, this Custom is well-equipped for amazing delivery of both sound and expression. This beauty can tame any beast.
®
Les Paul Custom Outfit The king of solid body guitars, the Les Paul Custom is often called the “tuxedo” LP because it’s dressed to kill. Featuring two Alnico-V Classic
Humbucking pickups, gold hardware, multi-binding on body (top and back), neck and headstock as well as split-diamond mother-of-pearl headstock and fingerboard inlays, it’s as
gorgeous as it is deadly. (Also available Lefty, EB)

Zakk Wylde Les Paul® Custom Plus Camo

Zakk Wylde Les Paul® Customs Plus Powerful… intimidating… inspiring - former Ozzy Osbourne guitarist and Black Label Society’s Zakk Wylde brings you two
punishing Les Paul Custom signature models from Epiphone. Start with a Les Paul Custom and add a lightning-fast satin neck made from Hard Maple for biting tone. Next add EMG-
81/85 active pickups for mind-numbing rock sound. Finally, choose from one of two Zakk-designed custom graphics to assault the eyes as well as ears. Is it any wonder that Zakk has
been voted Most Valuable Guitarist (MVP) three years in a row by Guitar World magazine? Does his guitar have a little something to do with it? We’d like to think so.
®
Les Paul Plustop PRO/FX Epiphone's new Les Paul Plustop PRO/FX combines all the great features and looks in a Les Paul but adds a double-locking Floyd Rose
Special™ tremolo and coil-tapping for an amazing combination of crunch and versatility. The body is routed out in back of the tremolo to allow for pitch raising up to 2-1/2 steps while
the downward range is wide enough to get the strings slack. There’s an Alnico Classic™ in the neck position providing warmth and crunch while the bridge position features a slightly
over-wound Alnico Classic Plus™ humbucker. With 4-wire output, this allows for coil-tapping with push/pull potentiometers on both volume controls. Combined with the 3-way toggle, it
gives you 6 killer tones in one great guitar!
®
Prophecy Les Paul Custom EX Outfit With its solid Mahogany body with highly-figured quilt Maple top and glued-in Mahogany neck, the EX has its roots firmly
planted in the LP tradition. But that’s where tradition ends. A 24-fret Ebony fingerboard with seductive “blade” inlays and jumbo frets give you two full octaves while the active EMG-
81/85 humbucking pickup combination provide the punch below every single note. The Epiphone StrapLocks provide security for this axe while a LockTone tune-o-matic/stopbar ensure
massive sustain. Controls include a neck volume, bridge volume and 3-way pickup selector. Includes a premium hard case.
®
Prophecy Les Paul Custom GX Outfit With its Black Cherry, hand-rubbed body and gold hardware, the new GX is breathtakingly beautiful. But don’t let its good
looks fool you. At the heart of this LP are Gibson USA’s 498T & 490R humbuckers, which have been called “the critical union between crunch and sustain”. Because of their powerful
mid-range response, these Gibson humbuckers are perfect for those who play tuned down nu-metal and other equally hard-hitting styles. A coil-tap push/pull volume control let’s you
switch from humbucker to single-coil mode for non-traditional tonal flexibility. Includes a premium hard case.

In addition to the

factory in New York,
Les experimented with
different homemade
pickups on an
Epiphone he called
“The Clunker” or The Les Paul Ultra
“Breadwrapper. sports a “belly-countour”

ergonomic comfort.

Computer designed,
body cavities for a
more “acoustic
tone”as well as
weight relief. Les Paul® Ultra

Les Paul® Standard “Plaintop” Now, the classic look of the “plain” Maple top is available to go with the classic Les Paul Sound. This understated look is preferred by
many Les Paul fanatics. It still has everything you need in a Les Paul: the solid Mahogany body, Maple top, Alnico Classic™ Humbucking pickups and the LockTone™ Tune-o-matic bridge/
Stopbar tailpiece combo for monstrous sustain. (Also available Lefty, EB)
®
Les Paul Ultra Epiphone brings a new twist to this rock guitar icon with the LP “ULTRA.” The Mahogany body has strategically placed hollow cavities for not only a lighter
guitar (about 5.5 lbs) but also a more “acoustic” sound. Additionally. there’s a belly-contour on the back that comfortably hugs your body. Add a slightly narrower nut (42mm) with very
fast, satin-finish neck and you’ve got the “ULTRA” friendly Epiphone Les Paul!
®
Les Paul Studio - “Worn” No frills, no nonsense. The Les Paul Studio gives you all the great tone and sustain you expect from a set-neck, carved-top Les Paul but with-
out all the fancy cosmetics. Just pure Alnico Classic™ powered Les Pauls in Ebony and Artic White, or available in Worn Brown and Worn Cherry.

Les Paul® -100

®
Goth Les Paul Studio Our classic LP Studio profile finished in Satin Black with all-black hardware and some crazy/hot open coil Alnico Classic™ humbuckers.
With it’s “black as night” stlying and non-adorned fingerboard (just a roman numeral at the 12th fret), the Studio Goth definitely has a “dark” vibe! Now with a built-in “kill” switch
Les Paul -100 ®
All the features of a Les Paul but in a more affordable bolt-neck version. It features a slightly slimmer body for added comfort and hot open-coil Alnico-V
Humbucking pickups on a carved top with individual pickup volume and tone controls. (Also available Lefty, HS)
LP Special -II GT ™
Is that a WHAMMY bar? Yes it is! Epiphone has equipped the new GT with a vintage style tremolo, allowing you to bend strings and chords with ease.
Combined with the “kill-switch”, this guitar can create amazing effects. Providing the sizzle and snarl is the 650R (neck) and 700T (bridge) pickup combo. The hotter 700T pickup is
smooth but can give you a little extra scream or growl when you need it! The GT is equipped with a patent-applied-for combination Master Tone and Kill Switch. If you push or "tap" it
down, it acts as a KILL switch muting all output signal and creating a cool effect (think Buckethead!) when combined with distortion. Wrap it all up in a thin "worn" black finish that feels
like a vintage classic!
LP Express Outfit Epiphone's new LP-Express captures the look, sound and feel of our famous LP's but in a slightly smaller package that's perfect for younger players or for
travel use. The neck has the same basic dimensions as a full-size guitar but the scale length is only 22.0". The result is a guitar that's more comfortable to play - especially for smaller
players - while still maintaining good string tension when tuned to standard "E". The combination of the fully-adjustable "fixed" bridge with a string-through body design fits well on the
smaller size body while adding sustain and making string changes a breeze. With the slightly looser string tension, Epiphone designed the new Express with premium, 14:1 ratio diecast
tuners to give you excellent tuning accuracy and stability. As a bonus, a custom "Express sized" padded gigbag is included with every guitar making it the perfect travel guitar!
LP Special -II ™
Our most popular model gives you all the essential elements of a Les Paul - powerful twin humbuckers combined with a stop-bar tailpiece and tune-o-matic
bridge for killer tone and great sustain. All at a price anyone can afford! (Also available Lefty)

G-400 Custom Elegant and powerful, the classic three pickup SG lives on in stunning detail - even down to the “Les Paul” script at the end of the fingerboard. Our G-400
Custom features three powerful Alnico Classic™ Humbucking pickups like the original but we’ve added even more flexibility with individual bridge, middle and neck volume controls to allow
for infinite blending combinations.
G-400 - “Worn” A true icon guitar, the SG was originally a successor to the Les Paul model from ’61 to ’68. This edition of the prized 1962 Gibson SG boasts the power and
merciless sustain you expect to shake you all night long. It’s constructed of a Mahogany neck glued into a Mahogany body with twin Alnico Classic Humbucking pickups. All the bite, tone
and comfort, at a fraction of the cost. (Also available Left-hand, HS)
™
Prophecy SG EX Custom With its solid Mahogany body with highly-figured quilt Maple top and glued-in Mahogany neck, the EX has its roots firmly planted in the SG
tradition. But that’s where tradition ends. A 24-fret Ebony fingerboard and jumbo frets give you two full octaves while the active EMG-81/85 humbucking pickup combination provide the
punch below every single note. The Epiphone patent-applied-for Straplocks provide security for this axe while a LockTone™ tune-omatic/stopbar ensure massive sustain. Controls include
a neck volume, bridge volume and 3-way pickup selector. And because it’s a “Custom,” the “EX” sports a bound neck and headstock. The Prophecy EX takes advantage of all the design
work and testing we’ve been doing over the past two to three years at a fraction of the cost!
Tony Iommi Signature G-400 Legendary Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi put his name and endorsement on this savage axe based on the classic 1962 Gibson SG.
All the bite, tone and playing comfort you need featuring 24-fret SlimTaper neck, Gibson® USA Tony Iommi Humbuckers and Tony’s distinctive “cross” inlays! Finished in Ebony and
Black Chrome.

Emily the Strange G-310 Outfit complete with
custom designed
graphics

G-1275 Custom Double Neck Jimmy Page made it famous and now Epiphone makes this two-headed monster available to you in fabulous detail.
Combining a 6-string with a 12-string, this classic SG doubleneck allows you to experiment with both at the same time. Featuring Alnico Classic Humbucking pickups mounted on a
Mahogany body with a gorgeous Flame Maple top, the ES-1275 sets the standard for all other doublenecks to follow.
Emily the Strange G-310 Outfit Emily the Strange, an Internet character created by the Cosmic Debris Company, has become a worldwide phenomenon. The 13-year-
old girl’s “anti-cool” vibe has spawned comic books, graphic novels, and an upcoming feature film. Our Emily the Strange G-310 is adorned with her image and other cool graphics from
Emily’s world. It also comes with a custom gigbag and strap to complete the ensemble. So now… get lost!
G-310 Based on the 1967 Gibson SG, the Epiphone G-310 has all the SG style and features you want, but with bolt-neck affordability. It also has a full pickguard and sports two
hot open-coil Humbucking pickups with individual volume and tone controls. (Also available Left-hand, EB)
™
SG Special Now everyone can own a real SG! The SG Special from Epiphone features twin open-coil Humbucking pickups, a Tune-o-matic bridge/Stopbar tailpiece combo for
maximum sustain and a fully-carved SG body for devilish good looks. The Special is also equipped with a patent-applied-for combination Master Tone and KillPot™. If you push or "tap" it
down it acts as a KILL switch muting all output signal and creating a cool effect.
™
SG Express Outfit Epiphone's new SG-Express captures the look, sound and feel of our famous SG's but in a slightly smaller package. The neck has the same basic
dimensions as a full-size guitar but a scale length of 22.0" - still maintaining good string tension when tuned to standard "E". The fully-adjustable "fixed" bridge with a string-through body
design fits well on the smaller size body while adding sustain. With the slightly looser string tension, Epiphone designed the new Express with premium, 14:1 ratio diecast tuners to give
you excellent tuning accuracy. The Express is also equipped with a patent-applied-for combination Master Tone and Kill Switch. If you push or "tap" it down, it acts as a KILL switch
muting all output signal. As a bonus, a custom "Express sized" padded gigbag is included with every guitar making it the perfect travel companion!

Nighthawk Custom When the Nighthawk was first introduced in 1993, it represented a departure from Gibson "tradition" with it's 25.5" scale length and it's versatile
combination of pickups. The design of the Nighthawk is essentially a combination of a SG (lower bout and thinner body) and a Les Paul (upper bout). Like those classic guitars, it features
a solid Mahogany body (with added "belly" scarf for comfort) and a glued-in SlimTaper™ Mahogany neck giving it a warm tone with excellent sustain. To add brilliance as well as a
smooth, durable playing surface, the Nighthawk Custom is fitted with an Rosewood fingerboard. And don't forget, the Nighthawk bridge with it's "string-thru" body design ensures even
more sustain and power. With it's unique pickup package that includes a full-size NHT humbucker (bridge), a NSX single-coil (middle) and a NHR mini-humbucker (neck) combined with a
5-way slider and push/pull coil-tapping tone knob, you have 9 different "tones" at your fingertips! Premium 14:1 ratio Grover™ machine heads make for excellent tuning accuracy. So if
you missed out on the first Nighthawks because you thought they were a little too "different." now's your chance to redeem yourself.
“1984” Explorer™ EX Originally introduced in 1958, the Explorer’s radical and futuristic body shape has since been adopted as the instrument of choice for hard rock and
metal players. It features a 24.75” scale length rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium/jumbo frets. The “1984” EX’s Big Brother tone comes from one Active EMG-85 neck pickup and
one Active EMG-81 bridge pickup. The EMG-85 uses two Alnico magnet-loaded coils with a wide aperture for a beefy low end and a fat top end. Distortion during lead passages is con-
sistent with long sustain and smooth breakup fades. The Active EMG pickups excel at pushing any amp into overdrive. A hinged compartment on the back makes changing the active
pickup’s 9-volt battery easy. Like all Epiphone electric guitars, the “1984” Explorer EX includes Epiphone’s trademark LockTone™ Tune-o-matic bridge and LockTone™ Stopbar tailpiece,
which provide solid string tension and quick tuning accuracy.
™
Explorer GT Featuring a slightly smaller and lighter-weight Mahogany body (about 85%), this new GT is the most comfortable Explorer we've ever played. But don't let the smaller
size fool you! This machine has all the same features that you've come to expect from an Explorer. Providing the sizzle and snarl that you can only get from humbuckers is a U.S.A.
designed, 650R (neck) and 700T (bridge) pickup combo. The patent-applied-for combination Master Tone and Kill Switch, operates just like an ordinary tone pot. If you push or "tap" it
down, it acts as a KILL switch muting all output signal and creating a cool effect when combined with distortion. Other features include Epiphone's patent-applied-for LockTone™ tune-o-
matic/stopbar combination for re-stringing ease and increased sustain. With this Explorer's cutaway design and a contoured, recessed bolt neck, all 22 frets are easy to access.
™
‘58 Explorer Goth Our classic “modernistic” EXP™ design finished in Satin Black with all-black hardware and some crazy, hot open coil humbuckers.

Jeff Waters Annihilation Flying-V What Jeff Waters of Annhilator calls "The Ultimate Metal Guitar!" The Annhilation-V sports a solid mahogany neck joined to a solid
mahogany body. The 24-fret phenolic fingerboard allows a full two octaves of range. Designed by Epiphone engineers and made by Gibson U.S.A, the Annihilation-V features custom, over-
wound 4-wire humbuckers. The JWT bridge HB features a Ceramic-8 magnet, delivering crunch and growl. The JWR neck pickup features an Alnico-II magnet that provides vintage tone
with great sustain. Controlling these matched humbuckers is a master volume control with push/pull, coil-tapping. The 3-way toggle in combination with the coil-tapping allows you up to
6 different tonal combinations. Plus, an easy to use "kill button" that cuts off the output for added effects. Other upgrades include Grover™ 14:1 ratio tuners and Epiphone StrapLocks.
Marcus Henderson Apparition Marcus Henderson’s “Apparition” signature guitar starts with a shape reminiscent of an Explorer or Futura, and features a unique
“patent-applied-for” All-Access™ heel contour and high-performance pickups, perfect for every guitar hero. Controlling the active EMG-81 & EMG-85 pickups is a Master Volume and
Master Tone with 3-way pickup selector. A spring-loaded “kill-button” comes standard and allows the player to create amazing effects – particularly in combination with the double-locking,
Floyd Rose original tremolo. An Ebony fingerboard, plus all-metal, pearl inlaid knobs compliment the guitars Midnight Ebony finish.
Robb Flynn Love/Death Baritone-V Outfit The Robb Flynn Love/Death Baritone Flying-V features a Mahogany body with a pair of EMG™ pickups. The EMG-HA
neck pickup is a noiseless single-coil pickup inside a humbucking housing; the perfect choice for rhythm when matched with low tuning.The EMG-81 bridge pickup utilizes powerful ceramic
magnets and close aperture coils for incredible amounts of low end cut and fluid sustain. Robb’s baritone design brings a totally original sound to metal and hard rock. “The main reason
for having the slightly shorter 27.0" baritone scale is when you tune down to B, it just makes the low definition really tight, especially for palm muting and chunking,” The Mahogany
SlimTaper™ "D"-profile neck features a 1.68” graphite nut for precision tuning, an Ebony fingerboard with “Love/Death” inlays and 24 medium jumbo frets. Controls are straightforward
with a master volume and a 3-way toggle switch and Epiphone StrapLocks. The Robb Flynn Love/Death Baritone Flying-V also includes a Custom Hard Case with original artwork by Robb
Flynn and Strephon Taylor.

“1966” Worn Wilshire™ with TremTone™
Guitar World
Gold Award

1966 “Worn” Wilshire™ & ‘66 Wilshire with Tremtone One-of-a-kind sound from Epiphone's Glorious Past! For over a decade, Epiphone solid body
guitars and basses were produced right alongside Gibsons in Kalamazoo, Michigan. They provided unique shapes, pickup arrangements, and tonal signatures not seen on comparable
Gibson models of the day. Under-appreciated at the time of their release, one such Epiphone instrument was the 1966 Wilshire. The Wilshire’s double cutaway Mahogany body with a
glued-in Mahogany neck that joins the body at the 22nd fret gives you ultimate upper fret access. Most early Epiphone guitars, including the Wilshire, were equipped with mini-humbuck-
ing pickups and Epiphone carries on this tradition. A replica of the originals, they feature adjustable pole pieces, enamel wire, bar ceramic magnets and rounded nickel plated covers set
in an original style black mounting ring with height adjustment screws. The “batwing” headstock is adorned like the original with the vintage “Epiphone” logo in gold. Other features
include a 1960’s SlimTaper™ neck profile with Rosewood fingerboard, premium 14:1 die-cast tuners and individual Volume and Tone controls for each pickup. And to give it that worn-in
look and feel, Epiphone tops it all off with a thin satin finish. Only 398 original 1966 Wilshires were produced and are selling today for $10,000 or more depending upon condition.
™
“Worn” Firebird Studio The Firebird Studio combines the “reverse-body” style with our traditional set-neck design and full-size Alnico Classic™ humbuckers. To top it off
we’ve added Steinberger 40:1 direct drive, gearless tuners, maintaining the “banjo” tuner look and a vintage “worn” finish. Fly high!

‘58 Korina Flying-V™Based on the Gibson ‘58 Flying V, its symmetrical “modernistic” design changed the look of rock and roll forever. The ultra-fast neck and upper fret
access offers any guitarist with fast hands and a flair for showmanship a must-have axe. Often imitated, but never duplicated... until now!

 Les Paul® Special Bass

Viola™ Bass

Les Paul® Special Bass The classic design and shape of the legendary Les Paul six-string guitar is applied to a truly versatile bass. Featuring a Mahogany body with a set
Mahogany neck and two specially designed Alnico bass humbuckers, the Les Paul Special bass does for the low end what its six-string cousin does for lead guitar. With separate volume
controls, one master tone control and its great balance and tone, you won’t find a better performing bass anywhere! Capable of crunch-thumping lows to punchy funk snap, the Les Paul
Special bass is extremely flexible and suitable to any musical genre.
™
Viola Bass This veteran from the British Invasion is back without the vintage price tag! The Mod looks and creamy warm, bass tone come together as a result of its hollow
laminated Maple body and a short-scale 30” Maple neck. The elegant “violin” body shape and Flame Maple top deliver classic looks and playing comfort. The two dual bass Mini-
Humbucking pickups deliver a warm, woody tone and feature separate volume controls and one master tone control. Get back to the beginning of Rock and Roll with a sweet vintage
tone and playing ease!
™
EB-3 Bass Like the SG guitar, the SG bass has defined rock music with its ultra-thin body, lightning fast neck and distinctive double cutaway shape. Made famous by the likes of
Jack Bruce of The Cream, Felix Papilardi of Mountain and Andy Fraser of Free, the EB-3 found great favor with many 60’s and 70’s bass players. The one Sidewinder humbucker
and one Mini-Humbucker and the VariTone selector combine to give you all the necessary deep mellow tones, while the set neck gives you the sustain you need.
™
EB-0 Bass The EB-0 bass makes the authentic SG shape available to all bass players with its easy to play short-scale, narrow neck and total fret access. Though small and
light, this classic 60’s bass delivers huge sound! The Mahogany body and neck make for great sustain and it’s powerful single Sidewinder bass Humbucking pickup gives authentic rock
growl. All at a price that anyone can afford!

Dave Navarro and his “Jane”

John Lennon EJ-160E

Dave Navarro “Jane” Epiphone is famous for making great sounding and affordable solid-wood acoustic guitars and Dave’s Navarro’s new signature model is no exception. It
starts with a solid Sitka Spruce top, hand-scalloped bracing, Mahogany kerfing, a solid Mahogany back and solid Ebony fingerboard. But if you’re looking for a guitar that brings real
acoustic tone when plugged in, the new Dave Navarro is just the one for you. Epiphone’s eSonic™ preamp system with the revolutionary NanoFlex™ under-saddle pickup gives you the
control and sound quality you need when performing live. Controls include Master Volume, Treble and Bass EQ, a Dynamics slider that acts as an EQ frequency shifter and a “phase”
switch to help eliminate feedback. As a personalized touch, the multi-layer truss rod cover features “Jane” in white while the very thin clear pickguard features a haunting line drawing.
Other professional features on the new Navarro acoustic/electric include 16:1 ratio Grover™ machine heads for stable and accurate tuning, nickel hardware, a solid Rosewood bridge
with bone saddle and a slightly wider nut width of 1.725” for easy, precise fingering
John Lennon EJ-160E The acoustic/electric that is synonymous with John Lennon features the same shape and feel as his famous Gibson. A portion of the proceeds
from the sale of each will be donated to The BMI Foundation, Inc. for the John Lennon Scholarship Fund which supports music education... Fab-ulous!
™
Inspired by 1964 Texan Acoustic/Electric Since it's introduction in 1958, the Epiphone Texan, with its sloped-shoulder or Advanced Jumbo (AJ) body shape,
has been one of our best selling shapes. It features a premium solid Spruce top with a solid Mahogany back and Mahogany rims, which leads to a balanced tone with shimmering highs,
deeper lows and clearer mid-range. The solid Mahogany neck, topped with a Rosewood fingerboard sports the original parallelogram inlays. Keeping the guitar in tune are original-style
but updated 14:1 ratio vintage tuners with classic small oval buttons. Epiphone has even reproduced the original blue rectangular sound hole label from the 1960s. The saddle has been
updated to feature a fixed, compensated saddle for improved tuning accuracy, better sustain and improved tone. For today's player, we’ve added a Shadow's Sonic™ preamp system,
mounted inside the sound hole, and an under-saddle NanoFlex™ low-impedance pickup. The sound is truly "acoustic" combining accurate body and string tone with percussive attack.
SST Studio The steel-string version of the SST, this solidbody acoustic/electric has computer-designed body cavities to ensure natural tone, while the Shadow preamp and
Nanoflex pickup allow acoustic guitarists to play at high volume with no feedback. A headphone/amp switch allows you to plug in a regulat pair of headphones for private practice.

Joan Sebastion Triunfadora™ Joan Sebastian is Mexico’s most famous and celebrated singer/songwriter. The new Joan Sebastian “Triunfadora” (the Achiever), being
slightly smaller than a Super Jumbo guitar, makes it a much more comfortable instrument to play while still maintaining great acoustic power and projection. It features a Mahogany
neck, premium Rosewood body and a Solid Sitka Spruce top with hand-scalloped, lightweight bracing. Its beautiful rounded cut-away not only gives it a distinctive look, but also allows for
easy fret access up to its 20th fret. As distinctive as the man himself, the new “Triunfadora” spares no expense when it comes to details. With its Rosewood body wrapped in Abalone
multi-binding and mother-of-pearl “crosses” inlaid into the bound fingerboard, it’s clear that this guitar is special. But what really sets it apart is its soundhole rosette featuring 13 hearts
inlaid into a ring of Rosewood. Epiphone’s new eSonic™ preamp and NanoFlex™ pickup system, with it’s unique flexible sensing material features integrated active electronics and picks up
not only string vibration but also top and body vibrations as well for a truly acoustic tone without the harshness of piezos. Other touches include a bound body on the top and back and
fingerboard. To top it all off, the guitar comes with an embroidered leather strap just like the one Joan uses bearing the Cross (Faith), Heart (Love) and Horseshoe (Luck).
™
Joan Sebastion Sonador The Sonador features a Mahoagny body while retaining the Triunfadora’s shape and size, giving it deep rich lows and shimmering highs with
just the right amount of mid-range. Powered by an AT-3000 preamp, you have a Master Volume control as well as both High and Low EQ controls with, +/-12dB of range right at your
fingertips. Capturing both body and string sound, the preamp is connected to a piezo element pickup mounted under its compensated saddle. With it’s value price, playability and per-
formance, the new Joan Sebastian “Sonador” is a dream come true.
EJ-200CE We’ve changed the rules for the The King of the Flattops” by adding a graceful cutaway for added fret access and a preamp EQ. The EJ-200CE gives you all the
features of the EJ-200 in an acoustic/electric, outstanding projection and great low-end response. (Also available in Natural and Vintage Sunburst)
Performer™ ME Meet our new acoustic/electric guitar that sounds as gorgeous as it looks! This beauty features a highly-figured Flame Maple top, back and sides trimmed in
real hand-inlayed Abalone and accented with gold hardware and Grover tuners. A solid Mahogany neck adds warmth. Equipped with the revolutionary new Epiphone eSonic2 stereo pre-
amp system, this acoustic/electric comes to life when plugged in. The Performer ME is truly ready to perform!

MM-30S (A-Style)

MM-50E Professional Electric Mandolin Many products claim to be revolutionary but more often than not it seems, that claim falls short of expectations. The
MM-50E Professional is the first mandolin that allows you to adjust the output level of each individual string pair solving the inherent mandolin problem of unbalanced string pair volume.
Designed in cooperation with Shadow Germany, the MM-50E starts with the new "Quad" NanoMag™ pickup. The NanoMag is a unique, low-impedance humbucking pickup equipped with
samariun-cobalt magnets that captures true acoustic tone and a wide range of harmonics. Under each string pair is a separate "coil" that only picks up the sound of that string pair with
crosstalk separation of >85dB! Each of the 4 output levels is controlled by 4 trimpots discretely accessible from the top of the pickguard via a mini flathead screwdriver. Rather than
loading the mandolin down with electronics and adversely affecting it's natural acoustic tone, the Shadow system puts all the electronics inside the pickguard. On the pickguard are
master volume, treble and bass rotary controls as well as an easy-access battery compartment using a light-weight, long lasting 2032 watch-style lithium battery. Even the pickup is
mounted on the pickguard allowing you to position it in the optimum location for your picking style, the NanoMag can slide back towards the bridge for a brighter tone or forward
towards the neck for a warmer tone and anywhere in-between. For a great vintage look as well as enhanced tonal characteristics, the MM-50E Professional features a very thin, hand-
rubbed poly-oil finish. Not satin, this "50%" sheen finish looks and sounds. fantastic. The MM-50E Professional features classic "F" style specifications including a carved, solid Spruce
top with traditional flame maple back, sides and neck. Multi-binding on the body and headstock along with classic mother-of-pearl "Flower Pot" headstock inlay, nickel hardware, vintage
machine heads with pearloid buttons and a Rosewood fingerboard and bridge pay tribute to Lloyd Loar's original "F" style design.The electronics feature Shadow's 5-year world-wide
warranty and acclaimed customer service.
MM-30S Mandolin If you’re looking for a great mandolin with professional features, look no further! Our “A” style MM-30S is constructed with a Solid Spruce top and
Mahogany back and sides for a rich, classic tone. A Rosewood fingerboard and Gold hardware complete the pro package! (Also available - Electric - MM-30SE)
MM-50 Mandolin The Gibson F-5 mandolin is the essential “f” style mandolin and our MM-50 is a complete re-design of the Epiphone F-style... step on back to 1922.
Features include Solid Spruce top and Figured Maple back and sides and a beautiful ‘22 style sunburst. headstock veneer, trussrod cover, multi-bound pickguard and appointments
are all historically correct. The fingerboard size, shape, scale, inlays and fingerboard support are all based on the vintage 1922 F-5. Lloyd Loar would be proud!
MM-20 Mandolin The MM-20 is a great value - just like our MM-30, but with a Select Spruce top and Chrome hardware. Now everyone can afford
a quality mandolin with great looks and sound!
