Iconic Stage-Ready Guitar Iterations

Epiphone Debuts the Alex Lifeson 1976 ES-355 Reissue

Epiphone — the iconic instrument brand with over 150 years of crafting guitars for musicians at every stage — has unveiled the Alex Lifeson 1976 ES-355 Reissue as part of its Inspired by Gibson Custom series. This stage-ready recreation of the Rush legend's famous Alpine White ES-355 captures his unmistakable tone, refined feel, and innovative spirit.

The Alex Lifeson 1976 ES-355 Reissue is a semi-hollow guitar that features a five-ply maple and poplar body with a solid maple center block to enhance sustain and reduce feedback. This construction is enhanced with a three-piece maple neck with a volute for added strength and a Slim C profile for fast playability, and an ebony fretboard with mother-of-pearl block inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets. The guitar is rounded off with premium appointments including gold hardware, a harmonica-style Tune-O-Matic bridge, a Maestro Vibrola for expressive pitch control, and a Gibson-style open-book headstock with die-cast tuners.
