Hey, I'm gonna try and sell this badboy to finance a new amp, but would like to know if the epiphone forum members would like to discuss this model, perhaps give some info I can put in the ad.
For instance, I rarely see the same knobs on these... Was it just willienillie "something from the drawer" , or maybe some custom options, back in the day? Also, the bridge position pickup seems somewhat rare?
Neck binding has been restored by previous owner, and the neck has very nice low action and intonation. Looks like original case, could up the price maybe... Serial is; 25138 (Epiphone Zephyr).

One of the closest ones I've found is this one that sold some years ago: http://www.djangobooks.com/forum/discussion/11704/sold-1940-epiphone-zephyr-jazz-archtop-guitar
But what's with that back panel... Mine doesn't have that. Is mine some kind of prototype? Wishful thinking. And that serial number isn't exactly "1" haha. Again, the knobs being different but looks original. Not sure about the tailpiece, it's different but also might be non-original.
