The EPIPHONE INSPIRED BY 1964 TEXAN, Antique Natural has been the choice of countless musicians including Paul McCartney, Peter Frampton and Noel Gallagher. The INSPIRED BY 1964 TEXAN combines all the great features of the original with modern updates for today's musician.
EPIPHONE INSPIRED BY 1964 TEXAN features a more rounded upper bout and a larger lower bout with a subtle waist. Resembling a bell shape, this leads to a more balanced tone with shimmering highs, deeper lows and clearer mid-range that's perfect for singer/songwriters and other solo performers.
Like the original, the new Texan features a premium solid Spruce top with a solid Mahogany back and Mahogany rims. Solid woods resonate beautifully and only improve with age. The neck is solid Mahogany topped with a Rosewood fingerboard adorned with the original parallelogram inlays.
Hand-fitted and glued into the body, the neck features Epiphone's SlimTaper(tm) neck profile that's comfortable and easy to play. Keeping the guitar in tune are original-style but updated 14:1 ratio vintage tuners with classic small oval buttons. Epiphone has even reproduced the original blue rectangular sound hole label from the 1960's for yet another touch of authenticity.

Ive been unlucky with this guitar. Unfortunately the wood in the finger board came a little bent so it buzzes from the 12th fret on. This guitar looks great, unfortunately it doesnt play so well.
Having said that, Musicstore is dealing with the problems, and the shipping was fast and with UPS.
This is the best budget acoustic guitar guitar you can be purchase. It has the sound of guitar that cost at 800-900 euros. Although perhaps not the best finish and easy to play as best guitars, the sound is phenomenal. Lacks slightly the roundness of best Martin guitars when playing chords, while solos sound almost as good. Just because it is a favorite guitar of Paul McCartney, Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix and Noel Gallagher is enough to take the guitar and play with joy.
