Classic, Korean build Epi Joe Pass Emperor II in a vintage burst finish, flamed back, and gold hardware.  One owner only and always played/kept in a humidified studio, can find no flaws with her after all this time and frankly looks in like new condition, played very sparingly over the years.  Please see photos, no buckle/scratches, gold hardware in terrific condition, action is fast, superb full jazzy sound plugged in and just as good acoustically,  maple back is outstanding...much better compared to the recent builds Joe Pass samples coming out of China. Comes with a new Gator HSC.Will ship 2-3 days after PayPal payment is received, no returns allowed, USA only bidders please, from a non-smoking home.  Please let me know if you have questions, thank you for looking.From Epiphone;
Joe Pass Emperor II
Joe Pass was known as the “president of bebop guitar.” Raised near Jamestown, Pennsylvania, as a teenager Joe headed for New York City where his inventive, fluid lines, advanced harmonic knowledge, and seemingly endless well of melodic ideas were immediately recognized. Perhaps Pass’ best work was for Norman Granz’ Pablo label, based in Los Angeles. During his career, Joe recorded with a Who’s Who of jazz greats including Les McCaan, Ella Fitzgerald, Chet Baker, Oscar Peterson, Herb Ellis, Ray Brown, and Milt Jackson.We’re very proud that Joe welcomed the opportunity to have his own Epiphone model and his Joe Pass Emperor II is a stunning guitar and a fitting tribute to a player who was a great teacher and a great inspiration to players around the world.
