New Vintage Gloss Finishes
The new Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom Collection models feature new Vintage Gloss finishes that give them a more vintage-correct appearance without looking overly aged. They look as if they had been purchased new and then spent years sitting in a case that was safely stored away, just waiting for you to discover them.
Rosewood Fretboards
The new Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom Collection models now feature rosewood fretboards for even greater authenticity and historical accuracy.
USA Pickups
All of the models in the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom Collection feature USA-built pickups from the Gibson Pickup Shop in Nashville, Tennessee. These are the same high-quality, great-sounding pickups you’ll find in our USA-built Gibson and Gibson Custom models
Gibson-style Headstocks
All of the models in the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom Collection feature vintage-appropriate headstock shapes. From the authentic Reverse Firebird headstock on the 1963 Firebird V Reissue With Maestro Vibrola and the 1963 Firebird I Reissue to the “open book” Gibson-style headstocks on the other models, they give these guitars an undeniably authentic appearance.
