Overview
The Crestwood first appeared in 1958 and in slightly modified form in 1959 as the Crestwood Custom; it was Epiphone's first original solid body electric guitar design. The new Epiphone Crestwood Custom returns to its roots with features that harken back to the early models including a symmetrical double cutaway mahogany body with two Epiphone PRO Mini Humbucker pickups, three on a side reduced sized Kalamazoo headstock with Epiphone Bikini badge and ivory button Epiphone Deluxe tuning machines, and a clear butterfly pickguard with white center stripe and foil E logo.
The Crestwood Custom comes equipped with a glued-in mahogany neck with a medium C profile, Indian laurel fretboard with 12" radius, 22 medium jumbo frets and Epiphone oval inlays, 2 volume and 2 tone controls with CTS potentiometers and an Epiphone LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge with Graph Tech TUSQ saddles and Tremtone vibrato tailpiece.

"A very cool little hot rod of a guitar!"

It actually is as good as it looks in the pictures. Nicely made with a quality feel throughout the guitar. It required minimal adjustment out of the box: a third of a turn for some neck relief, a lowering of the bridge and some saddle sliding for intonation (about ten minutes work) and it played effortlessly. I have to say that as an owner of American Fenders, Gibson's and Japanese Gretsch's, I love this vibey little 60's garage band guitar. And it feels and plays as well as any of those. If you're thinking about purchasing this but are unsure don't be! It's worth it and like other Epiphone models from the past this production will end and this guitar will increase in value. In fairness I should point out that I will be doing a little bit of light fret work on the fret ends/fretboard edge in the future. It's totally playable as is but a little masking tape, a small file and 30 minutes work will really make a beautiful playing guitar. In closing, I am extremely happy with this and every transaction I make at zZounds. Great guitar! Thank you zZounds!
