From Our Research Team:

The Warmth of Rosewood in an Acoustic/Electric Jumbo!

Epiphone revives the prestige of its 1930s guitars with the new Masterbilt Acoustic Series. These new flat-top guitars feature solid wood construction and a distinctive 1930s-style “offset notch” peghead shape with historic Epiphone script logo and mother-of-pearl “stickpin” inlay.

The classic Jumbo shape of the AJ-500RE is the preferred guitar of modern music legends.With gracefully sloping shoulders, solid rosewood back and sides, and a solid Sitka spruce top, the AJ-500RE blankets a room with deep, rich and rounded tones. The AJ-500RE includes the eSonic 2 System.

The beautiful grain of the Masterbilt woods is enhanced with a natural satin or vintage-style shaded finish. The dreadnought and fingerstyle models have full-body abalone binding, tapered dovetail neck joints glued with hot hide glue.

Shocking

by Nick from Sacramento CA
October 18, 2011
Music Background: Hobby
Went into a shop today in the hopes of leaving with a decision between flamed maple or rosewood. Played the Takamine EG523SC, and really wanted to like it. I had heard nothing but good reviews on it a... read more [+]nd it's a gorgeous guitar. Not a bad guitar, didn't like it as much as i wanted to.. but right after I picked up the AJ-500RE. One strum and I smiled...Completely blown away! I had not expected the depth and crispness of the sound. The only other guitar i could compare it to was a 1400 dollar Taylor my dad has. Eyes closed and I wouldn't have known the difference. The price makes you smile even bigger. Go play it and see. I left with my decision. close [-]

Our Customers Say...

I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!
