Epiphone celebrates a big birthday this year – a very big birthday, in fact – as it marks its 150th anniversary with the release of four limited edition electric guitars, including the Crestwood Custom, Wilshire, Sheraton and Zephyhr DeLuxe Regent.
Gibson is often described as Epiphone’s big brother, yet – in terms of pure age – the opposite is true. Indeed, with Epiphone founded almost 30 years earlier than its parent company (1873, as opposed to 1902), it’s old enough to be Gibson’s father.
