Description

Epiphone Texan FT-79 1965 – this guitar is absolutely a cannon! Not only because the Beatles played this exact guitar model… it sounds sooooo stunningly beautiful, looks absolutely cool and plays like butter.

Paul McCartney’s 1964 Epiphone Texan is only a few serial numbers far from this guitar.

This guitar sounds better than many of the Gibsons of the 60s we had. Epiphone was purchased by Gibson in 1957. Gibson moved the company from New York to Kalamazoo and for many years Epiphone produced basically the same guitars as Gibson, only under a different name and with a slightly different look.

Musicians like Paul McCartney of the Beatles, Peter Frampton and Jimi Hendrix, to name but a few, made these guitars world famous.

It has a beautiful open vintage sound. It unfolds its full charm when strummed – growling basses combined with a soft vintage nuance in the overall sound. The sound has a woody touch and spreads an almost mystical atmosphere.
At the same time the guitar is very balanced and offers the most beautiful timbres.

It is very easy to play and has a straight neck with a low action and well preserved frets. It is in good condition for the age and has a repaired crack on the top and one on the back.

It comes with a hard case.
