Creek Posted December 27, 2020 Posted December 27, 2020 Many years ago - I bought a Epiphone off my buddy. I have not been able to find the model? It was a blonde single cutaway- best I can remember it had one p90 neck pickup (brown color)?? The inlay was insane the classic fret inlay mother of pearl ~w/ flowers inlay on the headstock 😍Insanely beautiful. Classic tailpiece-White knobs I believe. I have searched high and low in pictures, however I have not been able to find it. I would guess it was a early 50’s model. I traded it for a $200 12 string that could not tune to pitch😭😩 many ideas on what model it may have been?? It looked very close to the picture I included ~ except it had a P-90 Thanks, D Quote

Creek Posted December 27, 2020 Author Posted December 27, 2020 Thank you, They had one that was very close.. Mine was older. Quote
cunningham26 Posted December 27, 2020 Posted December 27, 2020 Hey Creek definitely sounds like you had an Emperor, the acoustic archtop that you posted above, and maybe someone put a p90 in the neck. Epiphone did make an electric version with white knobs, but always had three of the NY pickups in them. It's possible you had a zephyr with a bikini logo or maybe a diff neck on it? sounds pretty close to what you're talking about less the tree of life headstock Quote
Dave F Posted December 27, 2020 Posted December 27, 2020 Maybe a Broadway https://reverb.com/item/37206626-epiphone-broadway-1941-blonde?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=6481185772&utm_content=campaignid=6481185772_adgroupid=80652879027_productpartitionid=341059816490=merchantid=240017996_productid=37206626_keyword=_device=c_adposition=_matchtype=_creative=391635704398&gclid=Cj0KCQiA_qD_BRDiARIsANjZ2LBY6nouarxFqc4fZjPFLV2rzEHy-afTHWqClPkq0S3IUd1C0hpTq1gaAtH9EALw_wcB Quote
JimR56 Posted December 31, 2020 Posted December 31, 2020 1951 Deluxe Regent with floating DeArmond. Maybe you had a Deluxe Regent Zephyr (built in pickup)? Here's a sunburst 1953 example with two pickups: Anyway, I'm guessing it was a Deluxe, with those cloud fretboard inlays. Quote
