Epiphone presents the new Inspired by ''1966'' Century electric guitar, a faithful reissue of the classic thinline all-hollowbody archtop featuring the Epiphone P-90 PRO single-coil pickup
Historic Epiphone Century Story In Epiphone history, the ''Century'' name goes all the way back to the 1930s big band era, when the ''House of Stathopoulo'' was making some of the best archtops ever made
And when Epiphone merged with Gibson and moved its productions to Kalamazoo, Michigan in 1957, the Century was reborn as a popular thinline archtop, similar to a Casino or a ''335'' but with a slightly smaller body and a single P-90 pickup
A Modern Archtop Inspired by ''1966'' The new Epiphone Inspired by ''1966'' Century hollowbody thinline archtop revives the mid 60s design prized by collectors for their comfortable, lightweight body with neck joint at the 14th fret and warm, woody tone
The laminated Maple body features a Maple top. The Mahogany neck has a Rounded ''C'' shape and Rosewood fingerboard with Pearloid ''Dot'' inlays.
The Century is available in an Aged Gloss finish in either Cherry or Vintage Sunburst.
The Inspired by ''1966'' Century is powered by the new single coil P-90 PRO pickup, recognized around the world as the most versatile and expressive single coil pickup available.
A 1960s era Replica Blue Sound hole label can be seen through the upper f-hole. The white and black layered pick guard has a classic 60s era ''E''.
