1962  Epiphone FT-45

Unusual FT-45. w/hsc

An unusual one, almost looks like it was built at the old New York Epiphone factory except we know it got at least final assembly at Gibson's Kalamazoo plant. Has the older New York peghead shape; maybe the neck blank was brought over, though it definitely has that lovely, unique early-1960's Gibson shallow oval contour. Got that New York Epiphone look to its sunburst finish too. Real bottom line is that it sounds smooth as can be and unusually strong. No issues, no cracks, no repairs, and a whole heck of a lot of tone and charm. Real smooth action.
