1966 Epiphone Texan FT-79

For sale today is an Epiphone Texan FT-79 from 1966. A few notes on the overall condition:

-This guitar has some play wear and lacquer checking, expected of a guitar this age, but nothing that affects sound, playability, or structural stability (see photos).

-The frets are original and have a good amount of wear, but the wear is even and apart from a fair bit of buzz at the 14th/15th frets, the guitar rings out up and down the fretboard without significant buzzing, dead spots, or other major issues.

-Nut width is 1.564" (39.74mm)

-The action is currently around 6/64" on the bass side and 4/64" on the treble side at the 12th fret. This guitar has not had a neck reset, and there is some room to come down at the saddle, but not much.

-Weight is 4 lbs. 6.3 oz.

This guitar will be packed with the utmost care and ship fully insured with the original grey chipboard case. Please reach out if you have any additional questions, thanks for looking!
