Finish
Up for consideration is a very nice 1966 Epi Sorrento E452T guitar -- made by Gibson in the Kalamazoo plant. This was basically the Epiphone version of the Gibson ES-125, with the addition of a mini-humbucker instead of a P90s, and the differing details of the Epi headstock, neck inlay, and a slightly different body shape. These are about 4x as rare as the Gibson ES125, as Gibson/Epiphone just made 2,631 of these Sorrentos vs. about 10K of the now more expensive ES125. So here is a great opportunity to snag one of these Gibson-made Sorrentos, at a nice discount to the Gibson ES125!!!

CONDITION
The Epi Sorrento E452T is in overall very good condition, with some minor dings and scratches. The finish looks like it has some non-professional retouching on the upper bout. The guitar is all original with these exceptions: the bridge base is original, but the tune-a-matic upper section has been switched out for a more traditional jazz bridge; the tuners + output jack have been replaced, but the original tuners and jack are included, and can be seen in the Hi Rez Photos.
