Here is one of the more interesting guitars we have had in awhile. This is a very transitional model with a White P-90 pickup, White pointer knobs, Epiphone plate headstock logo, White heel cap, and a three piece neck. This is the missing link between the initial New York pickup Century and the later more Gibson influenced Century of the mid to late 1960s.
