Epiphone Riviera
A stunning rarity from Epiphone Japan. These old Matsumoku built Epi's are beautifully crafted instruments that ooze class and cool. The dark transparent red finish on this thing is stunning; the pictures really don't do it justice!
This Riviera is essentially a 335 with an Epiphone logo, sporting dual humbuckers and a stopbar tailpiece. A real riff machine!

- Maple body (fully bound)
