Epiphone E-721 Harry Volpe Hollowbody Electric Guitar (1957)

By the time Epiphone issued this Harry Volpe Model the companies fortunes were waning. Epiphone would be soon be sold to Gibson. Harry Volpe was a noted Jazz guitarist whose hay days were in the first half of the 20th century. He was born in Italy and emigrated to the United States in 1914. He continued to play and teach until his passing in early 1995. Although this model bore his name he actually preferred an Epiphone E112 Emperor model. This guitar has good potential, but needs a skilled luthier to bring it back to good playing condition. Built in the U.S.A. NO CASE
