Epiphone was an instrument manufacturer founded 150 years ago in the Ottoman Empire. Upon emigrating to the United States, the Stathopoulos family continued their craft in New York. By the end of the 1950s the company belonged to CMI, owners of Gibson. Itself now operating under recently changed hands, Gibson is celebrating Epiphone’s rich sonic history with a series of 150th anniversary Epiphone guitars, the Wilshire among them. Enjoy!
