The Limited Edition Paul McCartney 1964 Texan is a replica of the famous guitar that he used to record “Yesterday” and that he performed with on the Ed Sullivan Show. Sir Paul has worked with Epiphone to ensure that every detail of his original ’64 Texan (which he still owns and uses today) is historically accurate - from the Antique Natural lacquer finish to plastic-button Kluson machine heads to the “C” shaped Mahogany neck. Each of these guitars is individually numbered and includes a certificate of authenticity and a custom Ultralight Hardcase.

This is the third and final series of Epiphone McCartney Signature Texans. Celebrating the year of the Beatles historic performance on the Ed Sullivan show, this series is limited to only 1,964 instruments worldwide and is hand-crafted in Japan by the luthiers who make Epiphone’s acclaimed Elitist series guitars. These guitars feature the finest solid mahogany and Sitka spruce available. The neck is fitted just as it was in 1964, with a tapered “dovetail” joint. The lacquer finish has been custom mixed to exactly match the color and sheen of a 1964 Epiphone Texan. Sir Paul worked with Epiphone to ensure every detail has been replicated, right down to the off-white grain filler, side dots on the fingerboard, and even the small gap between inside back strip and the head block (a detail McCartney himself pointed out during the design phase).

• Solid mahogany back/sides, Sitka Spruce top, and Rosewood fingerboard
