Product Description
In tribute to the most famous semi-hollow electric guitar in prog, Epiphone are pleased to present the Alex Lifeson 1976 ES-355 in Alpine White. Based on his beloved vintage Gibson model, this Epiphone 355 captures the tone, vibe and feel of the guitar that helped sculpt the sound of Rush for nearly 40 years.
Constructed from a 5-ply Maple/Poplar body in partnership with a 3-piece Maple neck with Ebony fingerboard, this reissue stays true to the ‘70s original, even sporting the famed volute. Featuring a pair of USA-made Gibson T-Type humbuckers, wired together with CTS pots, premium Mallory capacitors, a mono Varitone circuit and Switchcraft switch and output, this semi-hollow electric guitar is built ready for even the most demanding situations. With its Epiphone hardcase and eye-catching aesthetics, the Epiphone Alex Lifeson ES-355 is the perfect choice for anyone looking for a versatile pro-level workhorse that can cover it all from Jazz to blues to rock and prog.
USA-made Gibson T-Type Humbuckers
While maintaining a lot of the same warmth, articulation, dynamics and openness that’s associated with the earlier Gibson PAF humbuckers, these calibrated T-Type humbuckers, based on the famed T-Top Gibson Humbuckers, offer a little more top end with a tighter, more articulate bass response.
