Epiphone Crestwood Custom: A Classic Solid-Body Icon Returns
The Epiphone Crestwood Custom is a faithful reissue of one of Epiphone's most iconic electric guitars, originally introduced in 1958 as the brand's first solid-body electric guitar. Renamed Crestwood Custom in 1959, this model returns to its roots with vintage-inspired features that honor its legacy while delivering modern playability and performance. With its symmetrical double-cutaway design, powerful PRO Mini Humbucker pickups, and classic styling, the Crestwood Custom is a must-have for fans of vintage guitars and modern players alike.
Classic Design with Modern Enhancements
The Crestwood Custom features a symmetrical double-cutaway mahogany body, providing a comfortable and balanced feel. The gloss finish on the Polaris White colorway adds a touch of elegance to the guitar's vintage aesthetics. The glued-in mahogany neck has a medium C profile, offering a smooth and comfortable playing experience. The 24.724" scale length, Indian laurel fingerboard with a 12.01" radius, and 22 medium jumbo frets provide excellent playability for a variety of playing styles.
Vintage-Inspired Hardware and Electronics
The Crestwood Custom is equipped with two Epiphone PRO Mini Humbucker pickups, delivering a rich and articulate tone that is perfect for both clean and overdriven sounds. The 3-way toggle switch allows you to select between the neck pickup, bridge pickup, or a combination of both, giving you versatile tonal options. The guitar's hardware is finished in nickel, with Epiphone Deluxe Vintage tuners featuring ivory buttons for a classic look. The LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge with Graph Tech TUSQ saddles and Tremotone vibrato tailpiece ensures excellent intonation and smooth vibrato action.
Attention to Detail
Epiphone has gone to great lengths to ensure that the Crestwood Custom stays true to its heritage. The guitar features a three-on-a-side reduced-sized Kalamazoo headstock with the Epiphone Bikini badge, a clear butterfly pickguard with a white center stripe and foil E logo, and black top hat control knobs with nickel inserts. The dual-action truss rod with a 3-ply Epiphone Bullet cover adds to the guitar's durability and ease of adjustment.
