Epiphone - J-45 Studio EC Acoustic Collection Vintage Sunburst + Housse

Take the Epiphone J-45 Studio EC in your hands, and you'll immediately feel the balance of an instrument designed to last, with its glued dovetail joint generating real vibratory continuity between the Rounded C profile mahogany neck and the mahogany body, ready to respond to the slightest touch of the pick. The solid spruce top, supported by a sculpted X-Brace bracing, breathes generously, offering a rich, dynamic tone that's already earned a reputation among fans of hushed ballads, American folk accents and fingerstyle set to soft light. With 20 frets on a rosewood fingerboard that glides like a varnished pontoon on the shore of a lake, the cutaway gives you serene access to the high frets for an ethereal melody. The rosewood belly-up bridge and compensated saddle ensure a clean, precise response, with a pleasant balance between warm mids and clear highs, ready to follow you on stage or in the studio without forcing your inspiration.

Plugged in, the Epiphone J-45 Studio EC slips you into a full, warm world with the S-Core transducer and Fishman Presys II preamp, a tandem designed to deliver a natural, faithful and nuanced sound, whether you're in a cosy living room or under local spotlights. The on-board tuner saves you the hassle of tuning between two ideas. The 60s-style Kalamazoo headstock, the simple rosette and the teardrop-shaped tortoiseshell pickguard all add up to a striking vintage aesthetic, without ever taking precedence over the pleasure of playing wood against skin.
