Title: (x) Build Record/Info Request, '95 Epic
Post by: ajdover on August 03, 2009, 08:27:49 PM
Mica,
 
    Just picked up a '95 Epic off of Ebay, SN 95W8940.  Would like to find out the history if I can - thanks in advance.  It's a lovely instrument, and I love the tone - it's different from my neck through Alembics, but no less impressive tone wise.  Plays incredibly well, and I love the simplicity of the controls.  I do believe someone at one point did some refinishing on the neck - there's some finish missing on the bass side of the cutaway, and it's a bit rough there.  Other than that, there's just a few dings, some finish wear, etc.  Still plays and sounds great!
 
Thanks,
 
Alan
