UPDATE - 1/30@11:10AM: According to a Sweetwater sales rep, the guitar is expected to release in April, with most stores having them in hand by June.
The 2026 NAMM show took place last week in Anaheim, and Gibson unveiled a new batch of Epiphone guitars including a new ICG (Inspired by Gibson Custom Guitars) Alex Lifeson 1976 ES-355 reissue. Premier Guitars met up with Gibson's VP of Product, Mat Koehler, at the show, who gave a rundown of the guitar and its features which you can check out below or in this YouTube video (thanks Jeff K). The guitar will retail for just under $1500, but no word on a release date yet. Stay tuned.
