1994 Epiphone Emperor – Amazing Archtop!

Check out this 1994 Epiphone Emperor, a full-size hollowbody archtop that delivers classic jazz styling, rich acoustic resonance, and timeless elegance.

Inspired by one of Epiphone’s most celebrated pre-war designs, the Emperor combines a large hollowbody with traditional appointments to create an instrument that is equally impressive visually and sonically. The fully hollow construction produces a warm, open voice with excellent projection and harmonic complexity, making it a wonderful choice for jazz, blues, swing, and traditional pop, while also lending itself beautifully to roots and fingerstyle playing.

Plugged in, the Emperor offers smooth, articulate tones with exceptional note definition and warmth. Chords remain full and balanced, while single-note lines sing with a rich, rounded character that complements clean and lightly driven amplifiers alike.

Built during the 1990s, when Epiphone was producing some of its most respected modern instruments, this Emperor showcases impressive craftsmanship, quality materials, and excellent attention to detail. From its elegant binding and classic appointments to its comfortable neck and refined playability, it is an instrument that punches well above its price point. The guitar is in overall excellent condition with a couple of small blemishes (shown in photos), mainly one right below the pickguard on the top. Includes OHSC.
