Epiphone USA Texan 2020 Acoustic Guitar Demo

Here's the new Texan, made in Bozeman, Montana!
The Epiphone Texan is essentially a J-45 with a long 25.5" scale length.
When Gibson purchased rival guitar manufacturer Epiphone in 1957, it moved all of it's production to Kalamazoo, Michigan where the Gibson factory was, and proceeded to churn out a bunch of what were essentially Gibson guitars with a different headstock and minor appointment changes. The Casino (basically an ES330) is another common example of this.
I have a soft spot for Epi acoustics, I had a really beat '64 Texan for a while that sounded insane. Something about a slope shouldered dread with a long scale just works. Paul Mccartney, Peter Frampton, and Noel Gallagher think so too!
This guitar has a spruce top, mahogany back and sides, Indian Rosewood board and bridge, and traditional hand scalloped X bracing. It also includes LR Baggs electronics.

Recorded with Shure KSM32, Focusrite Saffire Pro 40, Logic Pro, no additional processing.
