Epiphone By Gibson 1989 SQ-180 Everly Brothers Jumbo Acoustic Guitar Made In Korea
- Product Code: EPIP/SQ-180
- Availability: Out Of Stock
This is a 1989 Epiphone small jumbo made in Korea, Don Everly acoustic in ebony with double pickguard. In all round good order, there is a ding in the 12th fret, as shown with a corresponding scratch in the fretboard, neither affect intonation or play but, need mentioning. There is a dormant jack socket but, whatever pick up previously fitted has been removed.
There's light fretwear on the lower frets but, nothing that causes any issues during play, the body is Maple with a rich, deep rosewood fretboard inlaid with stars. The guitar has signs of play throughout, as to be expected with a 35 year old instrument, light buckle rash to the back but, no large chips in the finish of any note.
These guitars are a becoming increasingly hard to find and the build stands the test of time, really easy to play and offers oodles of volume.
