To commemorate the Wilshire as well as other “Kalamazoo-made” models, Epiphone introduced the “Epiphone Historic Custom USA” collection.  The first in the series of reissues is the 1962 Wilshire in Faded Cherry and White.  Made in Nashville, Tennessee in cooperation with the Gibson Custom Shop and limited to only 100 instruments of each color worldwide, it combines impeccable attention to detail and historic accuracy.
