Joan Jett has never followed the crowd, and her choice of guitar is no exception. As she continues to electrify and influence new generations through her music, activism, and uncompromising presence, the Epiphone Joan Jett Olympic Special channels that same bold spirit into a lean, stage-ready rock ’n’ roll instrument. Finished with a sharp, understated look and built around a straightforward layout, its lone humbucker pickup delivers unapologetically powerful tone. This is a guitar defined by attitude and focus—nothing more, nothing less. It’s made for players who want to plug in, crank it up, and be heard, just like Joan.
Inspired by Joan’s original Epiphone Olympic Special, this new version delivers the core elements you need to rock without distractions. It features a lightweight, asymmetrical double cutaway mahogany body designed for comfort and freedom of movement, paired with a glued-in mahogany neck shaped to the Olympic Special profile. The rosewood fretboard has a 12” radius, 22 medium jumbo frets, and pearloid dot inlays. The headstock carries the classic Olympic Special silhouette and is fitted with die-cast tuners and a Graph Tech nut for dependable tuning stability. A gold reproduction of Joan’s signature appears on the back of the headstock for an added personal touch.
At its core is a single PowerHammer ProBucker pickup, delivering direct, unfiltered tone. Controls are intentionally simple yet effective: a single CTS volume potentiometer topped with a black Speed knob featuring a rubber grip for confident handling and precise adjustment. An on/off toggle switch adds kill-switch capability, completing the stripped-back control setup.
Capturing Joan’s unmistakable style and spirit, the Joan Jett Olympic Special is a focused instrument for players inspired by Joan’s fearless approach to sound and performance, making it ideal for both fans and players alike. It ships in a custom premium gig bag and includes an artist sticker set. One pickup, one knob, one mission: pure rock. Pick one up and make it your own.
