Check out this sweet 1966 Epiphone FT-45 Cortez in Sunburst, one of only 595 shipped that year!  This Kalamazoo-built beauty is the Epiphone-branded equivalent of the X-braced Gibson B-25. In 1966, this guitar sold new for $140, while the Gibson-branded version sold of $147.50.  Wild! 

This Cortez is the cleanest and most-pleasant sounding one we have seen or heard in a long time, Soft voice that can growl if needed and a compact size makes it a great folk strummer or songwriting companion. The neck is straight, truss rod works in both directions, and it has all of its original parts. A strap button was added the the upper shoulder. Structurally, the guitar is intact and solid. It feels substantial in the hands and is hard to put down once you start! Check out the figuring in the top! The guitar is freshly setup and restrung and ready to be enjoyed. The original Gibson case is included.
