Epiphone Paul McCartney 1964 Texan Acoustic Guitar

"The guitars are part of a limited run of master-built Epiphones, produced in Japan by Gibson, and faithful to Paul McCartney's original specification.

Epiphone has been a part of the Gibson family of brands since 1957, and McCartney’s original guitar was made in the Gibson factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan, in 1964. He played it in the recording studio and on his famous performance of the Beatles hit “Yesterday” on the Ed Sullivan TV show on August 14, 1965. These guitars are hand-aged to replicate the playing wear on McCartney’s Texan.

The Japanese Texans feature the same solid spruce top and mahogany body that gave the ex-Beatle his enviable tone. The mahogany neck is topped with rosewood fretboard and classic pearl parallelogram inlays, while the antique natural finish gives these instruments a suitably vintage feel.

Hofner 500/1 Vintage '63 Violin Bass Guitar Sunburst

Hofner 500/1 Vintage '63 Violin Bass Guitar Sunburst

Musicians love the Hofner 500/1 Vintage '63 Violin Bass Guitar. In 1956, Walter Hofner had an idea for an amplified semi-acoustic bass. When it was brought to life, it proved to be a unique instrument with a smooth, sweet sound and a playing ease that eludes most ordinary basses. Many players revere Hofner's Violin Bass as a legend because of its historical significance and its warm, woody, double-bass-like amplified tone. Named for the year the most familiar version of the Violin Bass was popularized by by a certain young bass player from Liverpool, the Vintage '63 captures its characteristic tone - deep, warm and reminiscent of a full-sized string bass. Built to be as durable as its legacy, the compact-sized, easy-to-play, light-in-weight Vintage '63 is equally at home onstage or in the studio.
