Crafted with a select spruce top, this steel-string acoustic guitar promises exceptional sound projection and durability, making it a reliable companion for any musical journey.

The signature Epiphone Sloped Dovewing headstock, equipped with premium covered 14:1 ratio tuners, ensures precise tuning stability.

For those looking to amplify their sound, the PR-4E is equipped with a piezo pickup system and built-in electronics, conveniently mounted on the upper bout. These user-friendly controls include boost and cut options for treble, middle, and bass, as well as a volume control, phase switch, and low-battery indicator, powered by a 9-volt battery for swift changes during performances.
