About 1995 or so I bought a Epiphone from a pawn shop..I had it for like 3 months before i sold it for another guitar.So I dont have any pics of it.But If my memory is correct it was the shape of a Wilshire,Crescent...It was real thin with a tobacco sunburst finish...and the thing I most remember about it where then names of the pick up selectors and the volume and tone names..They had names like stun,laser,plasma gun..lol..stuff like that..actually the guitar sounded pretty good..I'm thinking it was a Japanese made one..With the Godzilla sounding pickup selector and all..lol...Just wondered If anyone knew what it was..

In the early '70s Epiphone had some Japanese-made models that used those older body styles but had 3+3 headstocks instead of the batwing shape of the '60s models. Maybe that's what you had. I see them come up on eBay once in a while -- you might do a search. I have to guess that the names for the switches were added by someone later.
