And I played it and loved it. Mine was made only 3 months apart from Paul McCartney's in 1964. He wrote \"Yesterday\" on his and I wrote \"Baby I Love Your Way\" on mine!\" Frampton's original 1964 Texan has been his main songwriting guitar ever since and has been a constant companion on the road until it was retired in favor of his new Ltd. Ed. \"1964\" Texan. \"I played the prototype on a British TV show and it sounded incredible. I'm so thrilled and honored.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSolid Spruce Top with Faded Vintageburst Finish:\u003c\/b\u003e  Like Frampton's vintage 1964 Texan, the new Ltd. Ed. Peter Frampton \"1964\" Texan has a Solid Mahogany body and a Solid Spruce Top with a Faded Vintageburst finish and 3-ply Ivory and Black binding. The Mahogany neck has a 1960s SlimTaper C-Profile with a 25.5\" scale length, 20 medium jumbo frets, a 12\" radius, and a Pau Ferro fingerboard with Pearloid \"Parallelograms\" inlays. The traditional Sloped Dovewing headstock comes with a replica of Frampton's signature in silver plus Frampton's original serial number-- \"205898\"--on the back along with a \"2018 Edition\" logo. The 2-way adjustable truss rod has an Epiphone \"bullet\" shaped cover with a 60s era Epiphone \"E\" logo in white. The Pau Ferro reverse belly bridge has a bone saddle and white bridge pins with \"Abalone\" Dots. The tortious shell-style pickguard also has a 60's era silver \"E\" emblem. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eL. R. Baggs EAS-VTC System:\u003c\/b\u003e  Peter Frampton has long been a fan of L. R. Baggs pickup systems. For his Epiphone Ltd. Ed. \"1964\" Texan, Frampton chose the cutting edge L. R. Baggs EAS-VTC system which includes both a soundhole pickup and a Flexible Film Sensor pickup in the saddle. The EAS-VTS system allows the Texan's incredible dynamic range and true acoustic sound to shine through when plugged in. Unlike typical undersaddle acoustic guitar pickups that are dependent on string compression for their tone, the EAS-VTC system was engineered to mirror the soundboard's actual movement as you play. The L. R. Baggs system includes soundhole mounted controls for Master Volume and Tone along with a built-in LF filter. The L. R. Baggs EAS-VTC system is powered by a standard 9-volt battery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSchaller M6 Machine Heads:  \u003c\/b\u003eThe new Ltd. Ed.

An un-signed Certificate of Authenticity is included and an optional hard case is also available. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTop Material: \u003c\/b\u003eSolid Spruce\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody Material: \u003c\/b\u003eSolid Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Material: \u003c\/b\u003eMahogany\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e Traditional 1960's SlimTaper ; C-Profile\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Joint: \u003c\/b\u003eGlued-In\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeadstock: \u003c\/b\u003eTraditional Epiphone \"Sloped Dovewing\":  \"Peter Frampton\" signature replica on back in SILVER.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTruss Rod: \u003c\/b\u003e2-way Adjustable\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTruss Rod Cover: \u003c\/b\u003e\"Bullet\" shaped; 2-layer (B\/W);  Vintage \"E\" in White\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eScale Length: \u003c\/b\u003e25.5\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard Material: \u003c\/b\u003ePau Ferro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard Inlay: \u003c\/b\u003ePearloid \"Parallelograms\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eElectronics: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eL.
