Introduced in the late 40's, the Zephyr Regent was Epiphone's most popular electric cutaway guitar. The Zephyr Regent was positioned against its main competitor, the Gibson ES-350. Featuring a deeper cutaway than its Gibson rival, the Zephyr Regent facilitates upper fingerboard access by two to three frets. The adjustable 'New York' single-coil pickup is placed in the neck position, with the cream colored housing on either side of the nickel cover.
The action is low and fast, and the single-coil 'New York' pickups are sweet and clear. A classic jazzer from the golden era, the Zephyr Regent is outstanding value in a true New York Epi.
