{"product_id":"epiphone-wilshire-solid-body-electric-guitar-1964-6415","title":"Epiphone Wilshire Solid Body Electric Guitar (1964)","description":"Epiphone Wilshire Model Solid Body Electric Guitar (1964), made in Kalamazoo, Michigan, serial # 200950, cherry lacquer finish, mahogany body and neck, rosewood fingerboard, original grey hard shell case. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a fairly rare example of an early \"second generation\" Wilshire, the midline solidbody in the 1960's Gibson-made Epiphone line. The serial number dates this guitar to 1964, the year after these guitars we re-designed in a more Fender-like manner. The earlier double sided headstock was replaced with a single sided style often referred to as the \"batwing\", and the body's lower cutaway horn was shortened resulting in a asymmetrical profile. With a great slim neck, very strong mini-humbucking pickups and a fairly rare stoptail (non-tremolo) setup this is a great player, as well-most of these had a vibrato system. A cool and often overlooked mid-'60's Gibson solidbody!\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 39 in. (99.1 cm.), 13 in. (33 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 1 in. (2.5 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 24 3\/4 in. (629 mm.). Width of nut is 1 5\/8 in. (41 mm.). This guitar is very clean and all original, the cherry finish is shiny with a little fade, some small chips and some broad checking. The pickguard has a one small crack due to shrinkage near the output jack, and one strap button is a correct style re-issue. Other than these very small issues this is all original and a truly spectacular example! Excellent Condition.","brand":"Epiphone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46852987420812,"sku":"6415","price":3250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/8702\/3756\/files\/01_a302fabf-7c41-4880-b866-b8f8d2c86257.jpg?v=1774329526","url":"https:\/\/retrofret.com\/products\/epiphone-wilshire-solid-body-electric-guitar-1964-6415","provider":"RetroFret","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
