Gibson’s ES-125T, a thinline electric with a single P-90 pickup, was introduced in 1956.

It had been conceived as a relatively low-priced addition to the company’s range, but an even less costly alternative model was provided four years later: the Epiphone Sorrento. Like other Epis of the period, it closely replicated it’s Gibson original.

It has a body made of maple plywood and a single, sharp-horned cutaway.
