Here's what Sweetwater has to say:
Johnny A. Brings His Signature Style to the Epiphone Family
The Epiphone Johnny A. Custom is an inimitable player's custom shop-designed hollowbody signature guitar at an amazingly affordable price. The guitar's design is completely unique in the company's lineup, making it Gibson/Epiphone's first totally original artist design since the debut of the Les Paul. The maple and mahogany hollow body boasts a thin profile for plenty of warmth, while still fighting volume-based feedback. You'll enjoy plenty of snap from the neck's 25.5" scale length. And a set of genuine Gibson '57 Classic humbuckers sings with a vintage-correct tone, beautifully translating all the nuance of your playing.
A body design all its own
With the addition of the Johnny A. Custom to its stable of instruments, Epiphone is giving you the chance to own a top-shelf instrument that is unlike anything it has offered before. The hollowbody construction takes advantage of beautiful mahogany and figured maple to exude a warm tone that retains precise articulation. Though it shares a lot in common with larger ES-style electrics, performing guitarists will love the body's compact dimensions, allowing it to fight volume-induced feedback, while remaining comfortable whether played seated or standing. Sweetwater players call it the perfect blend of a 335 and a Les Paul.
A neck that is as beautiful as it is comfortable
Another completely custom feature of this instrument is its C-shaped neck profile. Johnny A. specified the shape, blending the hand-filling comfort of a vintage Gibson with the ability to move quickly up and down the fingerboard. The neck's 25.5" scale length is uncommon among Epiphone guitars and adds more attack and clarity every time you strike a string. All of these player-friendly design elements are dressed up beautifully with an expertly inlaid ebony fretboard and 3-ply binding.
Genuine Gibson and Bigsby appointments
As if the tonewoods, construction, and feel of the Epiphone Johnny A. Custom signature semi-hollowbody electric guitar weren't enough, it's also loaded with a set of Gibson's popular '57 Classic humbucking pickups. Wound the same as Gibson's original PAF pickups, the '57 Classics have a voice that perfectly balances string-to-string clarity while delivering the punch and midrange warmth that thousands of players rely on night after night. And with the addition of a genuine Bigsby B70 vibrato, you have an instrument that excels equally in beauty, feel, and tone.
