The 50th Anniversary “1962” Sorrento E452TDN Outfit features a laminated maple top and body, a mahogany neck with a 1960s SlipTaper profile, a rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays, 20 medium jumbo frets, historically accurate binding and tortoise style pickguard, and Gibson USA mini-humbuckers. Like the Casino, the Sorrento is a completely hollow design that makes for a lightweight guitar with a wide range of tones.

The dovewing headstock has a classic Epiphone metal logo badge and there is also a historically accurate “blue rectangular” Epiphone label.
