Epiphone J-45 EC Studio Acoustic Guitar – Vintage Sunburst
The Epiphone J-45 EC Studio Acoustic Guitar – Vintage Sunburst is one of Epi’s best-selling acoustic-electric guitars — and for good reason. The J-45 EC Studio’s Advanced Jumbo body gives you big sound, while conveying every nuance of your performance. Its bell-like shape sports a large lower bout and a smaller, rounded upper bout; this combination delivers a focused, balanced tone with robust lows complimented by a brilliant crispness in the mids and highs. And this guitar’s comfortable SlimTaper neck and elegant Venetian cutaway make fast runs in the treble range a pleasure to execute.
Beefy lows and crisp, clear mids
The J-45 EC Studio serves up crisp, clear mids and highs, which is a refreshing change if you’re used to a square-shouldered dreadnought. What’s up with that? Epiphone’s Advanced Jumbo body shape — first produced in the 1930s — has a big lower bout, along with a smaller, rounded upper bout with a narrow waist in between. This bell-shaped arrangement is what’s responsible for the unmistakable clarity that characterizes Epi’s Advanced Jumbo acoustics.
You’re always stage-ready
The Fishman Presys pickup system in the Epiphone J-45 EC Studio gives you plenty of tone-shaping options. There are bass, mid, and treble tone controls so you can dial in your ideal sound. A notch filter helps eliminate the possibility of feedback while playing live, and a brilliance control helps you cut through the mix. In addition, the phase control helps solve phase problems when recording the Presys output and a microphone at the same time. And a built-in tuner ensures you stay in tune while onstage or at home — a feature we really appreciate here.
Perfect for singer-songwriters — or in your thickest track
The J-45 EC Studio’s big, balanced tone is ideal for singer-songwriters. If you perform solo, the J-45 EC Studio is your perfect accompaniment, serving up the natural acoustic volume and bass response you need, along with the midrange clarity and bell-like highs that are so important for enhanced solo playing. With that said, the J-45 EC Studio also sits beautifully in a track. Again, it’s this instrument’s inherent clarity that makes the difference. When you’ve got bass, drums, keyboards, electric guitars, and vocals all competing for attention, you certainly don’t need a muddy-sounding acoustic!
