The Epiphone 1963 Dove 'Inspired By Gibson Custom' Acoustic Electric Guitar pays tribute to the iconic Gibson Dove, a guitar that has left a lasting mark on the music world since its introduction in the 1960s. Known for its square-shoulder design, the Dove became a favorite among influential musicians, capturing the spirit of a transformative musical era. The Epiphone version stays true to the essence of the original while incorporating modern upgrades to deliver a superior playing experience. With its solid thermally aged spruce top and solid maple back and sides, this guitar offers enhanced tonal clarity and resonance, making it a standout in any setting.
Equipped with a new rosewood fretboard, mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays, and a vintage gloss finish, the 1963 Dove offers both elegance and durability. The thermally aged neck with an era-correct profile enhances comfort and playability, while the L.R. Baggs Element Bronze VTC pickup system ensures excellent amplified sound. This guitar also features a bone nut and compensated bone saddle for optimal string-to-body transfer, making it perfect for studio or stage use. With its classic Dove aesthetic and modern performance features, the Epiphone 1963 Dove is a must-have for discerning musicians looking for a guitar that combines history with innovation.
