Epiphone Joe Bonamassa 1962 ES-335 Sixties Cherry Headstock Repair

Joe Bonamassa 1962 ES-335 Sixties Cherry Headstock Repair Item Description

This is a used and repaired Joe Bonamassa 1962 ES-335 signature guitar in Sixties Cherry. The guitar has a headstock repair professionally done without any cosmetic touchup, there's superglue filled in to make it smooth to the touch and the guitar is back to playing as it should!' The story of the guitar is a wild one. Originally purchased by Joe in 1996 and used on his first solo album, he did what all guitarists do at some point - sell it off for funds to help a move from New York to Los Angeles. In a twist of fate, as the 20th anniversary of his first record approached, the opportunity to buy the guitar back came around, and so thankful - Joe promised to keep the guitar for the rest of his career! This Epiphone 1962 ES-335 is an ode to that very guitar. The guitar has traditional multi-ply ES-335 construction, with period correct small block inlays and double ring tuners. Specs on the electronics don't skimp out, there are Gibson USA Burstbucker 2 and 3 humbuckers wired with CTS pots and Mallory capacitors. Each Joe Bonamassa 1962 ES-335 includes a hardshell case with Epiphone and Joe Bonamassa graphics, with a certificate of authenticity included as well!

Includes: Hardshell Case
