The 2004 Epiphone Emperor Regent Archtop in Sunburst is a timeless expression of classic jazz elegance, now elevated with a premium pickup upgrade for discerning players. Featuring a fully hollow body with a beautifully flamed maple top, back, and sides, this guitar delivers warm, resonant tones with exceptional clarity and depth—ideal for jazz, blues, and refined clean styles.
 
Finished in a rich Sunburst that highlights the natural wood grain, and accented by gold hardware, this instrument exudes vintage sophistication.
