Description
Featuring Epiphone SwingBucker™ pickups with classic Alnico-V magnets, Grover® machine heads, a LockTone™ Tune-o-matic bridge and a B30 Bigsby, the Emperor Swingster is a rockabilly hollow body classic.
Epiphone dug deep into their past to conjure up this innovative new design. Unique to the model, push/pull knobs on both pickups allow for a wide range of tonal options. With the same body and neck as the Emperor-II guitar made famous by jazz-master Joe Pass, Epiphone has outdone themselves, crankin’ out a lean, mean, twangin’ rockabilly machine!
