Early 70s Blue Label Epiphone Riviera in rare walnut finish. Comes with Epiphone hardshell case. These early models we made in what is now Epiphone Elitist factory in Japan: Matsumoku (check it out on Google). This beauty is in amazing condition considering it's age. It is essentially Epiphone's take the Gibson 335. Frets are in great condition.Guitar is all original. Note that the inlays on this guitar are very rare; instead of traditional block inlays it sports parallelograms similar to Gibson 345's. This particular model only circulated within Japan and was never exported to the US.The guitar is amazing and needs a new home.
