Description

The Epiphone Masterbilt Frontier is a modern tribute to the rare and cherished Frontier model, seamlessly blending historic charm with contemporary flair. Crafted with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid maple back and sides, this acoustic-electric guitar delivers a rich, resonant sound that suits a variety of musical styles. Its iconic "Rope and Cactus" pickguard adds a touch of vintage elegance, while the gloss finish enhances its visual appeal.

Under the hood, the Frontier is equipped with the Fishman Sonitone Onboard Preamp System, ensuring that your acoustic tone remains authentic and clear when amplified. This system features discreetly mounted controls for volume and tone, making it stage-ready without compromising the guitar's classic aesthetic.

The mahogany neck with a comfortable C-profile offers smooth playability, complemented by an Indian laurel fretboard adorned with pearloid "split block" rectangle inlays. Whether you're strumming chords or picking intricate melodies, the guitar's 25.5-inch scale and 20 medium jumbo frets provide the perfect platform for expressive playing.

This guitar not only stands out with its sound and playability but also with its robust construction, featuring a bone nut and saddle, gold Epiphone vintage-styled machine heads with keystone buttons, and a dovetail neck joint for added stability.
