This Epiphone Emperor Swingster is one of those guitars that just gets it right straight away — big hollowbody feel, loads of character, and that proper vintage-inspired look.
 

Finished in a vibrant orange, it’s very much in that classic rockabilly/jazz lane, but it’s more versatile than it first appears. The SwingBucker pickups have a bit more push than you’d expect from a hollowbody, so it’ll comfortably cover anything from warm, woody jazz tones through to brighter, snappier rockabilly and indie sounds.
 

It’s a fully hollow build, so it’s nice and resonant under the fingers, and the Bigsby-style trem adds that bit of movement and feel without getting in the way. Overall, just a really fun, inspiring guitar to play.
 

A great option if you’re after that Gretsch-style vibe without the price tag.

  • Very good condition overall.

    This guitar is in fantastic condition. The finish presents really well, and the back has a particularly nice bit of figuring through the maple which sets it apart slightly from others we’ve seen.

    Hardware shows very light ageing/patina, which suits the guitar nicely. Frets are in great shape with plenty of life, and it plays exactly as it should.

    Fully checked over and set up here at The Woodshed.
