Epiphone Masterbilt Century Deluxe Classic Vintage Natural
Product no: 9000-0042-4905 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

Epiphone's Masterbilt Century Deluxe Classic is an archtop electro-acoustic guitar that combines an original design with 21st century acoustic guitar electronics for a unique sound. It's equipped with a NanoFlex HD piezo pickup that's housed underneath the saddle of the floating Ebonoid bridge. The sound travels from the pickup to the eSonic HD preamplifier where it can be tweaked to perfection using the volume and tone controls.

Masterbilt Century Deluxe Classic: vintage and modern...

This Epiphone electro-acoustic archtop features classic f-holes and has a sound that is tonally rich, bright and dynamic with even more warmth than you get from a flattop model. It's perfect for playing different styles of music including blues, country and bluegrass. Singer/songwriter James Bay is also a fan of this type of guitar and even has his own Signature model. This Masterbilt Century Deluxe Classic is finished to a very high standard and has a rounded C neck profile that makes it extremely easy to play too.
