I owned and played a lot of hollow body jazz guitars in the past 30 years. Hand carved arch top guitars, laminated jazz guitars, luthier guitars, Gibson, Levin, Gretsch, Höfner, you name it. And of cause Epiphone. Not all were very good but among others, the Emperor Regent guitars from the nineties are something special.

Very, very nice. Great playing and very nice video & audio recording. Thumbs up!I own an 1994 Epiphone Emperor Regent, made at Peerless Factory, Korea. It's an amazing instrument, love it so much. My first (and only) really nice and quality Jazz guitar.Greetings, Vanja.P.S. You siad in the video that it was produced at Peerless since 1994. Was this the first year of the production? Is it possible I've got a piece from the first series, since mine is Made in 1994? :-)...

I may have a 1996 on the way. Just waiting to hear about the shipping costs. Here's to hoping it all goes as planned. Great recording in all the mixes. I enjoyed the listen.

yeah, Bro...I have a 97 from the Peerless factory too...it's a dream come true. BUT...I had the pickup re-wound by Kent Armstrong and made a larger pickguard with thumb-wheels replacing the awkwark vol and tone knobs. I also up-graded to Grover Imperial tuners. I now have a world class jazz box. Carry on !
