Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor Jazz Guitar Samick Korea with hard case This is a terrific hollow body guitar, an Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor. This guitar was made at the Samick Guitar Plant in Korea in 1989. If you research this you will find that Samick manufactures very high quality musical equipment. Features. Features of the guitar include a single cutaway hollow body, beautiful blonde wood with quilted blond back and sides, laminated maple body, sides, and back, three piece set maple neck, rosewood fingerboard with classic Gibson trapezoid inlays and a Gibson truss rod cover, single trapeze tailpiece to a Rosewood floating bridge, full-size Alnico Classic Humbuckers, Abalone "Tree of Life" headstock inlay, and Joe Pass signature reproduced on bound simulated tortoiseshell pick guard. Sound and feel. This is a terrific player with a warm balanced tone, and great range. It is sweet sounding and versatile – great for jazz, blues, and country twangs, etc. Everything is in excellent working order. There are no playing issues. It stays in tune very well. All of the components are original. It has very little fret ware. Condition: The guitar is in great shape and looks almost new except for some tarnishing to the gold hardware -- which is to be expected with any guitar of this age. It has no flaws or blemishes aside from some very light belt rash type scuffs that can only be seen if you are looking for them (nearly impossible to see), and one extra tiny hole where the pickguard attaches to the body (see last photo). The photos do not do justice to the beautiful finish. You could pay a WHOLE lot more for a Gibson but it wouldn't sound any better than this rig!!! Please check my feedback and bid with confidence. I have bought and sold over 100 high end guitars with 100% positive feedback. I pack them very carefully. If it is not exactly as I have described send it back to me within 3 days and I will refund your money, less shipping (US buyers only). Ask all questions before you bid. Now for the red tape: Bidding: Please do not bid if you will not or cannot follow through with payment. If you are a new bidder, have less than 10 feedbacks, or have less than a 95% positive feedback rating - please email me before bidding or I will cancel your bid. Sorry to be a jerk about it. Shipping policy: I will ship as quickly as I can once I've received payment from the winning bidder. If you pay with a check or cashier’s check, I will ship after the funds have cleared. I pack the item well, and ship in a secure box. In the US, it will be shipped by UPS ground with tracking. The shipping quote on this listing is for Continental US bidders only. Payment policy: PayPal is preferred. If you pay by anything other than PayPal I will wait until the funds have cleared before I ship. Local buyers (who pickup and save shipping costs) are required to pay with cash. Insurance: Insurance is included at the bid amount. Foreign Buyers. I will ONLY accept bids in the US, Canada and Western Europe. Please no bidders from China, Indonesia, Australia, Eastern Europe, and especially Nigeria. If you are in doubt, check with me first. All international bidders are required to use PayPal. International buyers shipping charges will be an estimate of my costs plus $10 for the box and shipping materials. To estimate shipping costs, I ship from Boca Raton FL 33496 in a well padded, secure box that is typically 50" x 20" x 8" and it will weigh less than 30 pounds. USPS is usually cheapest but you must check to be certain that they will accept packages larger than 50" in length and 106" in length + girth in your county. Typically it will cost $125 - $150. Also, with USPS there are often limits on the amount of insurance that can be purchased. Losses beyond the insurance are your responsibility. If this is not acceptable, I can ship by UPS or DHL, but they are more expensive. Sorry, I cannot work out individual shipping costs in advance. International buyers are responsible for all duties and fees to your county. I cannot possibly take these into account in an auction format.
