A gorgeous archtop with a new level of attention to detail reminiscent of vintage Epiphones. The Epiphone Elitist 1963 ES-335 Dot Electric Guitar is a beautifully-made sweet-sounding and easy-playing instrument. The Elite series are guitars that approach custom shop perfection. Crafted with premium woods fitted with American pickups and circuitry--even American-made toggle switches and Grover tuners--they're made at a special factory devoted to their manufacture where they receive a high degree of hands-on luthier attention. You'll find the Elite 1963 Dot true to the beautifully-made original. This Epi beautifully bridges the gap between Epiphone and Gibson. Includes hardshell case.
