Epiphone Texan FT-79 1969 Acoustic Guitar – Iconic Vintage Tone and Exceptional Playability

The Epiphone Texan FT-79 1969 Acoustic Guitar is an extraordinary instrument — a true vintage cannon with the unmistakable charm that made the Texan one of the most iconic acoustic guitars of the 1960s. It not only looks fantastic, but also plays effortlessly and delivers a tone that is nothing short of stunning.

Although the Beatles made this model world-famous through Paul McCartney’s 1964 Texan, Epiphone continued building exceptional instruments well into the late ’60s, and this 1969 example carries that same unmistakable DNA: power, warmth, and vintage character in one beautifully balanced voice.

A Model Steeped in Music History

Paul McCartney’s original Texan from 1964 remains one of the most famous acoustic guitars ever recorded, and while this 1969 Texan comes from a few years later, it shares the same Kalamazoo heritage and design lineage.

After Gibson purchased Epiphone in 1957 and moved production to Kalamazoo, Epiphone acoustics from this era were built with the same materials, craftsmanship, and construction methods as Gibson guitars — only with subtle design differences and the Epiphone branding. Many musicians of the era, including McCartney, Peter Frampton, and even Jimi Hendrix, embraced these guitars for their distinctive sound and superb playability.

A Stunning Open Vintage Sound

The Epiphone Texan FT-79 1969 Acoustic Guitar offers a sound that exceeds expectations. Its voice is open, rich, and wonderfully resonant. When strummed, it reveals its full vintage charm:

  • Growling, powerful bass

  • Warm, woody midrange

  • Soft vintage overtones

  • A mystical depth that fills the room

Despite its power, the guitar remains exceptionally balanced and delivers beautiful tonal colors across the entire register. Many players consider Texans from this era to rival — or even surpass — the Gibsons of the same period.

Excellent Playability & Condition

This Epiphone Texan FT-79 1969 Acoustic Guitar plays like a dream. It features:

  • A straight neck

  • Low, comfortable action

  • Well-preserved frets

  • Effortless playability across the fretboard

For its age, the guitar is in very good and all-original condition. It has no cracks, no repairs, and has clearly been well cared for over the decades.

A Vintage Texan Ready to Inspire

With its powerful tone, remarkable playability, and iconic heritage, the Epiphone Texan FT-79 1969 Acoustic Guitar is a fantastic opportunity for players and collectors alike. Whether you’re chasing that classic 60s singer-songwriter sound or simply want a vintage acoustic that delivers true character, this Texan will not disappoint.

The guitar comes with a hard case.
