Epiphone Masterbilt Frontier Acoustic-electric Guitar - Aged Viper Blue, Sweetwater Exclusive Reviews
Epiphone’s Masterbilt collection serves up a meticulous re-creation of the very rare Epiphone Frontier. The Masterbilt Frontier acoustic-electric features solid Sitka spruce atop maple back and sides for delightfully projective tone. On its top, you'll notice the iconic Frontier ”Rope and Cactus” pickguard. The Masterbilt Frontier also sports a Graph Tech NuBone nut and state-of-the-art Fishman Sonitone electronics for accurate acoustic tone when plugged in. The guitarists at Sweetwater are knocked out by the Masterbilt Frontier’s amazing tone, playability, looks, and value. We’re confident you will be, too!

Great guitar for the money!
I only have a couple things that I don't like about it, so I'll start there. It has the same low-grade velcro battery compartment as my old Dove, and came off as soon as I went to put a battery in. I'm just gonna remedy that with some good adhesive and that problem will be solved. I may also try to relocate it somewhere other than the neck joint, which is a pain to reach. The other issue is a couple of *small* dips in the top near the fretboard. Only cosmetic, no structural issue. But I wanted the one chosen for me by fate, and this one is unique to me.
The positives outweigh the negatives greatly. It's a gorgeous color, and I was told they only did 60 on this run. It matchs my Sheraton-II Pro beautifully. The pickguard is engraved, rather than just screen-printed, and it looks stellar. The way this thing projects is ASTOUNDING.I had it tuned to D standard for some Irish folk tunes and it really boomed. It can still be delicate and light, though. It really sounds killer plugged into a good system, as well. No d.i., even, just straight in. The inlays on mine have more pink and orange than I've seen in any other mother-of-pearl in a long time, again lending to the uniqueness of it. In all, Sweetwater really knocked it outta the park. Thanks, Cliff, for the help!
