Description

Join the rebellion with the Epiphone Joan Jett Olympic Special. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and Godmother of Punk have collaborated once again to bring her signature attitude and sound to a new generation of punk rockers. Based on one of Joan's favorite stage guitars, this Olympic Special keeps things lean and mean with a single humbucker design. Oh man, we love rock 'n' roll.

Crafted from a lightweight, asymmetrical double-cut mahogany body, the body was designed for comfort and ease of movement. The body sports a vintage sunburst finish, black pickguard, and nickel hardware. For its neck, a glued in, set mahogany neck boasts a Olympic Special profile and is topped with a rosewood fingerboard that is crowned with 22 medium jumbo frets. The Olympic Special headstock silhouette displays the Epiphone logo on the front and a gold reproduction of Joan Jett's signature on the back.

For punk rock attitude, the body is loaded with a single PowerHammer ProBucker humbucking pickup and delivers Joan's unmistakable sound – punchy, aggressive, and warm. It's simple control set features a single CTS volume potentiometer topped with a black speed knob and rubber grip and an on/off toggle switch for kill-switch functionality. Strings are loaded through the MTB605 bridge and are strung to pitch with the die-cast tuning machines. The Olympic Special is accompanied with a gig bag and artist sticker set.

This latest collab between Epiphone x Joan Jett does a fantastic job at capturing Joan's simple, yet precision approach to rock 'n' roll. Whether you're a fan of Joan or seeking a stripped down rocker, there is plenty to love about this Olympic Special.
