These Beauties Just Hit The Floor!
There’s a particular magic about unwrapping a guitar on Christmas morning. The crinkle of wrapping paper gives way to the gleam of lacquered wood, the shimmer of polished frets, and that ineffable sense of possibility that only a truly great instrument can provide. This year, Musicmaker has outdone itself, curating a selection of Gibson and Epiphone guitars that don’t just stand as tools of the trade but as works of art worthy of any festive wish list. These are guitars that sing as brightly as the carols, resonating with the joy and soul of the season. Let’s dive into this six-string yuletide feast, one luxurious course at a time.
This is odd.
Appetizer: Epiphone Sheraton Frequensator with Premium Gig Bag - Vintage Sunburst
The Sheraton Frequensator is a statement. Adorned in a vintage sunburst finish that practically glows under the Christmas tree lights, it boasts Epiphone’s hallmark semi-hollow warmth and crystalline highs. The Frequensator tailpiece not only looks the part but enhances sustain with a touch of old-school charm. Packaged with a premium gig bag, it’s a perfect companion for the gigging musician or the aspiring virtuoso ready to wow the family post-Christmas dinner.
First Course: Epiphone Masterbilt Hummingbird - Aged Cherry Sunburst Gloss
The Masterbilt Hummingbird is the stuff of holiday legends. Its solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany body deliver a resonant, warm tone that feels as cozy as a Christmas Eve by the fire. Whether strumming your favourite festive tunes or crafting your next masterpiece, its exquisite cherry sunburst gloss finish and detailed pickguard will keep all eyes on you. Add in the Fishman electronics for live performance, and you’ve got a gift that’s as versatile as it is beautiful.
Second Course: Epiphone Electar Century 1939 Lap Steel Outfit, Ebony
A vintage delight with a modern edge, the Electar Century 1939 Lap Steel is an ode to the golden age of slide guitar. Its retro-futuristic aesthetic pairs beautifully with its singing sustain and rich tones. Perfect for the musician looking to add a touch of Hawaiian holiday vibes or bluesy textures to their repertoire, it’s a one-of-a-kind gift that will have them sliding into the new year with style.
Main Course: Gibson Les Paul Junior, Vintage Tobacco Burst
Ah, the Les Paul Junior—rock ‘n’ roll distilled into its purest form. With its single P-90 pickup and mahogany construction, it delivers raw power and unmistakable growl. The vintage tobacco burst finish feels both rebellious and refined, like the perfect holiday tipple. It’s a no-frills masterpiece, ideal for the guitarist who values tone and feel over flashy extras.
Dessert: Gibson J-45 Standard Semi-Acoustic Dreadnought - Vintage Sunburst
The Gibson J-45, nicknamed "The Workhorse," is an acoustic guitar that has graced countless stages and recordings. Its vintage sunburst finish and rounded shoulder design are iconic, but its sound—a warm, balanced voice with impeccable clarity—is the real showstopper. Whether you’re serenading loved ones or crafting introspective ballads, this guitar is a timeless addition to any collection.
Digestif: Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s, Heritage Cherry Sunburst
The Les Paul Standard '50s is the crown jewel of this festive lineup. With its AA figured maple top and heritage cherry sunburst finish, it’s the guitar equivalent of a crackling firework display. The BurstBucker pickups deliver tones that range from searing leads to soulful rhythms, while the handwired electronics with Orange Drop capacitors ensure vintage authenticity. This is a guitar for the player who dreams of stepping into the spotlight.
