Description **
What can we say? This thing swings and plays jazz. The Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor II is a wonderful jazz guitar and a truly beautiful instrument in excellent condition.
As far as we can tell, it is in its original condition. It was built in 2005 at the Unsung factory in Korea, which is known for its very good build quality.
Even unplugged, it surprises with a fresh, percussive response and beautiful resonance. Amplified, it delivers exactly what you would expect from a large hollowbody: wonderfully clear, warm, and balanced – just right for jazz, blues, or relaxed swing and soul sounds.
The set three-piece maple neck feels comfortable in the hand and plays very smoothly. We carefully leveled a few frets, then polished all the frets and gave the guitar a complete setup. It is currently fitted with a set of .010 flatwound strings, which suit the character of this instrument perfectly.
The condition is excellent. It shows hardly any signs of use, the frets are in very good condition, and a matching case is also included.
An excellent jazz guitar – not only for beginners, but also for experienced players looking for a high-quality hollowbody at an attractive price.
Here is the original text from the 2004 Epiphone catalog:
