Epiphone FT-120 Excellente 1966 – a true holy grail acoustic guitar for players and collectors
The Epiphone FT-120 Excellente were the most expensive Gibson produced guitars when new in the 1960’s and were designed to be an ornate Gibson/Epiphone version of Martin’s famous pre-war herringbone D-28.
An absolutely stunning guitar and very rare is this one – total production from 1963 to 1969 was only 139.
Spruce top, rosewood back and sides, bound Ebony fingerboard with cloud inlays and inlaid headstock. This guitar is all original and in great vintage condition, without any repairs. It comes with the original case (with Gibson logo).
What can we say about the sound? … this really is a holy grail guitar in every aspect. We’ve never heard anything quite like it. Big, open, very proud … just incredibly good sounding. This guitar has great dynamic, projection and sustain.
This rare and historically significant guitar is stunning in every aspect and if you want a vintage flat top that none of your friends have – this is the one to buy.
