General
Epiphone's Inspired by Gibson range would be incomplete without the presence of the King of all Flat-Tops. The All-Solid Masterbilt J-200 has all the handsome looks and stunning and adaptable sound as the original wide-hipped classic. Made famous by the hands of country, folk, and rock legends (including Ms. Parton and Mr. Lennon themselves), this super-jumbo-shaped electro-acoustic guitar is authentically finished with an engraved scratchplate, a dapper moustache-shaped bridge, and a full set of keystone tuning buttons. This level of detail is continued in the crown-shaped mother-of-pearl headstock inlay that's echoed by the position markers lining the fretboard.
The Masterbilt J-200: A Broad Base, Sweet Definition, and Outstanding Presence
Unplugged, you're not just supported by the jumbo body shape but the solid wood used for the build - resulting in rich, colossal presence. The solid sitka spruce top lays down a broad foundation which is built on by the definition and stunning spread of the maple back and sides. This tonal presence is finished by the resonant, glued-in round-C profile 2-piece maple and mahogany neck. To ensure faithful stage sound, this guitar has been fitted with a revered Fishman Sonicore system for pure and natural feeling amplification that can be tweaked as needed using the discreetly placed controls, just inside the soundhole, completing an ode to a classic model with some welcome contemporary tweaks.
