Epihone Al Caiola Custom 1969? Walnutアル・カイオラ カスタム エピフォン 荒野の七人やボナンザなどのヒットで知られるギタリスト,アル・カイオラのシグネーチャーモデルです.

カイオラは,1950年代から2000年代まで,長期にわたって活躍していましたが,一番人気が高かったのは1960年代で,その時期にギブソンが彼のために仕立てたモデルになります.

購入時の説明では,本機は1969年製とのことですが,私がシリアルを調べた限りでは,1961~1970の製作以上の情報は分かりませんでした.
本機のシリアルよりも数字が多い個体が1967~1968年製として販売されていますので,ひょっとすると1969年よりもう少し古いものかもしれません.

当時カイオラがメインに使用していたのはグレッチで,このエピフォンも多分にグレッチを意識したモデルとなっています.
ロングスケールでギブソンでは珍しい0フレット仕様です.

一見リビエラのようなルックスですが,ボディはセンターブロックのないフルアコ仕様で,ボディ厚も335やリビエラなどより5mmほど厚くなっています.
たくさん付けられたスイッチは,ギブソンのバリトーンを個別のスイッチでON/OFFできるようにしたもので,ロータリーのバリトーンよりも複雑な組み合わせが可能です.
PUはフロント,リアの切り替えのみで,ミックスポジションは使えない不思議な仕様です.

都内のショップで購入したものですが,ショップのお話では電装系はフルオリジナルとのことでした.
加水分解で崩壊してしまったピックガードは,国内で製作された新しいものが取り付けられており,またネックのバインディングも巻き直したと聞いています.
(崩壊したオリジナルのピックガードはお付けします)

私の手元に来てから,フレットとナットは優秀な工房で交換してもらっています.

個人的な感想ですが,音は最高,フルアコのボディも軽くとても使いやすいギターと思います.
ペグはオリジナルのUSAグローバーですが,とてもスムーズで,この時代のUSAグローバーは素晴らしいなーとチューニングのたびにうっとりしています.

正直あまり手放したくない思いもあるのですが,年齢とともにギターをプレイする機会もめっきり減り,このまま死蔵しておくのももったいないと思い出品してみることにしました.
なのであまり入札が芳しくない場合は,申し訳ありませんが出品を取り消すかもしれません.

ギグバック(セミハードケース?)に入れてお送りします.

International Shipping Methods
Proxy bidding and purchasing services are becoming increasingly convenient. However, overseas shopping carries certain risks and issues. To reduce these risks and enhance shopping safety, please be sure to read the following information:

1. International Shipping

   Air Freight: If the item status is not confirmed within two days after the arrival notice, any customer complaints cannot be addressed with the seller.

2. After Receiving the Product

Please confirm and inspect the product as soon as possible to ensure that the product specifications, quantity, accessories, and description are correct

If, unfortunately, there are any issues, you can refer to the following examples on how to report related product problems:
1. Example of missing product information
2. Example of product not matching provided information
3. Example of damaged product information

Important Notes: 1. If the seller is unwilling to ship overseas or is unaware that the product will be shipped overseas, the international shipping cost for returns or exchanges will need to be borne by the member. You may refer to the EMS e-Express fee inquiry from the post office. If it involves alcoholic beverages or items that affect flight safety, the post office cannot be used for shipment, and only DHL can be used to ship back to Japan.
2. During the product complaint handling period, please retain the complete outer packaging of the product (including the shipping label information), and refrain from attempting any repairs or altering the original condition. Any modifications may result in the inability to process the case.

3. After Inspecting the Product

After receiving and inspecting the item, if you have any questions, it is recommended to contact Letao within 2 hours. Here are some reminders:

1. Please do not unpack, use or repair the received item yourself, and be sure to keep the original packaging to facilitate subsequent handling of related matters, so as to avoid changes to the item that may cause the seller to be unwilling to process.

2. You can call customer service, and the customer service will leave a message for you as below. Please provide the following information:
"Hello, we will first help you establish a complaint case for Product ID: _______ .But we need you to 2-3 clear photos of the product issue, including photos of the product problem, product packaging, shipping details slip, and outer box. Send them to service@letao.my and inform us of your desired resolution (failing to provide this may result in an inability to process subsequent matters).

Important Notes:
1. Do not include foreign text or other products in the background of the image.
2. Please keep the complete product packaging (including the shipping label information), and refrain from repairing or altering the original condition on your own, as any changes may result in the case being unable to be processed.
3. Please provide the relevant information within 48 hours to avoid missing the golden hour for reflection and causing situations that cannot be handled.
4. Due to 99% of Japanese sellers being unwilling or unaware of shipping goods overseas, if a seller is willing to handle the issue, the goods must be sent back to Japan, and the international shipping costs incurred must be borne by the member. Letao will use postal EMS international express to send the goods back to Japan.
5. As the goods are purchased from overseas, it may take approximately one to two weeks to complete the relevant processing procedures when issues arise with the goods. Please be reminded that you can inquire about the approximate cost through the EMS service at the post office.

4. FAQ

1. Issue of Authenticity: If antique or branded goods are found to be counterfeit upon receipt, clear photos showing the differences between the genuine product and the imitation must be provided as evidence. If unable to provide relevant proof, assistance can be sought to find a third-party reputable organization for a premium authentication service .
2. Leaking Iron Teapot: If an antique iron teapot is leaking, please take clear photos of the leaking area and provide them.
