Exceptional tonewoods deliver timeless tone
The Epiphone Masterbilt Frontier combines a toneful Sitka spruce top with maple sides and back. Maple is known for its sonic transparency, which makes it highly reflective of your personal playing style. Solid maple, used for the back and sides of the Frontier, is complemented by a solid Sitka spruce top. As a top tonewood, Sitka spruce offers a combination of strength and elasticity that delivers a broad dynamic range with crisp articulation that’s ideal for a wide range of playing styles, from delicate fingerpicking to aggressive flatpicked strumming. Together, these premium tonewoods make for a highly responsive and expressive instrument.
