The Epiphone Emperor Swingster Semi-Acoustic Guitar OR showcases excellent craftsmanship and playability offering value for money with this eye catching hollow body six string.
It features Epiphone SwingBucker™ pickups with classic Alnico-V magnets, Grover® machine heads, a LockTone™ Tune-o-matic bridge, and best of all, a licensed B30 Bigsby® with original style "wire" handle as preferred by "Certified Guitar Player" and legend Chet Atkins.
World famous for making some of the best and most innovative hollow-body guitars, Epiphone conjures up some of its past with the Emperor Swingster. Starting with the same body and neck as used on their Emperor-II guitar and made famous by the jazz master himself, Joe Pass, Epiphone swings into action and turns it into a serious twangin', rock-a-billy slingin', country flingin' machine!
The main features of the Epiphone Emperor Swingster Semi-Acoustic Guitar OR include:
The Swingster looks soooo good - And it sounds just as good.
If you were considering this guitar along side others of similar specifications, look no further. I spent a lot of time researching the Swingster against similar Gretsch models, and came to the conclusion that the Swingster had more 'pros' versus 'cons' than equivalent Gretsch models - And the current price of the Swingster (May 2020), makes the choice a no brainer.
Do yourself a favour and get this limited edition model whilst it's at a good price. By the way, Sunrise Orange looks great with the flamed maple....
Very pleased with the service ... very easy to use the website and to place the order.
Communication was also very good.
The product arrived it perfect condition and the guitar is exceptional.
Thank you.
I was looking to buy a Swingster and Music Store were knocking this guitar at a great price, far better than the UK stores. I was a little concerned at how they were doing this - B Stock ? I needn't have worried, the guitar arrived after a couple of days (probably quicker than UK store) and it was perfect straight out of the box - just needed tuning. Anyway on to the guitar, it has superb playability and a huge tonal range whether you want Rockabilly, Jazz, Country, Blues or even Rock. How do Epiphone and Music Store do such a great guitar at such a modest price? actually I don't really care they just do - get one before everyone else finds out. Richard
