About Epiphone Hollowbody Guitars
Since 1961, Epiphone has proven itself a major player in the archtop and hollowbody guitar space. Enduring designs like the double-cutaway Epiphone Casino — adored by the Stones and the Beatles — along with Epiphone’s single-cutaway Zephyr, rockabilly Emperor Swingster, and Broadway jazz box, continue to shape the way today’s guitarists write and perform music.
Epiphone is now a part of the Gibson worldwide family. But its original archtop designs and quality craftsmanship live on in the modern Epiphone hollowbody collection.
What to Look for in Your Next Epiphone Hollowbody Guitar
Key considerations when purchasing an Epiphone hollowbody include the body shape, bridge type, and electronics.
- Body shape: For many hollowbody fans, the Epiphone Casino is the platonic ideal. This thinline double-cut archtop has changed precious little over the years since George and John first strapped one on in the ’60s. Fortunately, it’s not the only option for today’s Epi lovers. Options range from the chunkier Broadway and Zephyr jazz boxes to the tricked-out Emperor Swingster rock ’n’ roll machine.
- Bridge type: The Casino is iconic for its Trapeze tailpiece and Tune-o-matic (TOM) bridge, and today’s guitarists can find this exact configuration in the modern Casino. For players who prefer a different option, there’s the Zephyr with its floating bridge, the Broadway with its split Trapeze tailpiece, and the Emperor Swingster with its licensed Bigsby vibrato and Chet-inspired arm assembly.
- Electronics: Rock lovers flock to the Epiphone Casino for its snarling, dog ear P-90 single-coil pickups. But today’s Epiphone hollowbody collection features many flavors of pickups to suit players of all stripes. The Broadway’s vintage-style alnico humbuckers yield massive warmth and sustain for dynamic players. The Zephyr’s period-correct mini humbuckers serve up jazz hall–inspired richness and clarity. Craving that old-school rockabilly bark? The Emperor Swingster’s Tron-type pickups and push-pull series/parallel switches pack a bite that would make Brian Setzer smile.
