Epiphone Emperor Swingster Metallic blue
The Epiphone Emperor Swingster is a superb hollowbody instrument that harks back to the golden era of electric guitar manufacturing in the mid-20th Century. Blending premium components with first-class style, this great-value instrument excels for a wide range of musical genres — including jazz, blues, rockabilly, country and rock.
Faithfully maintaining many of the original Swingster's signature features — such as a Bigsby tailpiece, old-school block inlays, and a tasteful mother of pearl "Tree of Life" design on the large headstock — this reimagined Emperor Swingster has also been enhanced with a raft of modern refinements including Grover tuners, low-noise Epiphone SwingBucker pickups and a Graph Tech nut.
