Description: Well if you thought that the Epiphone Howard Roberts Oval Hole Archtop was a copy of a similar guitar that Gibson once made. Well you got it wrong because the original Howard Roberts oval hole Archtop was was a Epiphone. Now thats a surprise. I would then suggest that this model is then a reissue of the real thing. There was a time when Epiphone was a very big contender for Gibson and offered some very good Archtops that competed very strongly with the Gibson range.
