Epiphone - Crestwood Custom Tremotone Cherry

A warm resonance envelops the very first note played on the Epiphone Crestwood Custom Cherry, the successor to a design first introduced in 1958. Beneath its glossy cherry finish, the two-piece solid mahogany body showcases a rich wood grain that allows every chord to resonate with depth. The double cutaway provides easy access to the higher frets without compromising playability.

The mahogany neck, glued to the body in the traditional Epiphone style, features a Medium C profile that moulds to the palm along the 24.75-inch scale length. The rosewood fingerboard glides warmly beneath the fingers and features twenty-two Medium Jumbo frets, allowing for generous bends across a 12-inch radius. The Graph Tech NuBone nut stabilises the tuning string by string, the double-action truss rod corrects the neck’s curvature as the seasons change, and the LockTone Tune-O-Matic and Stop Bar combination locks the .010 to .046 strings against the wood to transmit every vibration.

Two PRO Mini Humbucker pickups beneath nickel covers form an HH configuration, delivering a round sound at the neck and a biting tone at the bridge, adjustable via two CTS volume and two tone controls operated by a three-position selector switch. On the fretboard, oval synthetic mother-of-pearl inlays guide the eye in the dim light of a stage. The slim Kalamazoo-style headstock, adorned with the Epiphone Bikini badge, features Deluxe Vintage tuners with ivory-coloured knobs that maintain tuning stability. The clear pickguard with a white stripe and ‘E’ logo accompanies this Crestwood in its premium gig bag, ready for the road.
