This is a rare 1963 Epiphone Troubador flattop guitar. Maple body and sides, 12 fret, 2" at the nut, non-radiused fretboard, non-compensated bridge, similar to the Gibson FJN except the FJN has mahogany back and sides. I flatpicked this guitar for quite a while and it was about the loudest flattop at the jam.

I saw Kelly Joe Phelps play an FJN on his lap with a steel so I put a high bridge on this one and set it up as a lap guitar. About the best sounding acoustic lap guitar around. Set it up with an H&H Pure Country pickup, original hard case. Guitar is in excellent original condition. $1800
