i really really really want this. it seems like the perfect robroe guitar without playing it.

its got a robroe pickup, makes acoustic sondz for recording n shit.....

550 bucks at rumble seat right now. if its still there next time i go back to my parents and visit, im taking a guitar to trade in for it.

550 seems good for a 50 year old guitar that you would pay 300 for brand new if epiphone made this style today

They are pretty nice, same as the Gibson 120(except for the pickguard) but the cost half the price. It's got the melody maker pickup.

I used to have this one.It's a '66.

Yes yes, do approve. By the way, wasn't this model also called Olympic(pre-solid body)?

there was also a cutaway version (only Epiphone, not Gibson).

If you buy it, check out the novak mm-90, I have one in my melody maker, it's amaze-balls

There was a model in the 1930s that has a similar body shape called the Olympic. The Granada seems like it's a little wider though, I know that the Gibson ES-120T (the Gibson variant) is a thinline, I assume that the Granada is also thin while the '30s Olympic probably was a thick body archtop.

550 seems like a great price, less than half of what the Gibsons seem to go for.
