Here for sale we have an Epiphone EJ-160e/VC in Vintage Sunburst finish. Made in China in 2011, this guitar features a set-neck construction comprising a Solid Spruce top, Mahogany back and sides, Mahogany neck and 20 fret Rosewood fingerboard with matching bridge. This instrument is fitted with Epiphone Deluxe vintage-style tuning machines with 'Kluson' style tulip keys, and a EJ-160E Mini-HB pickup is fitted, and is wired to master volume and tone controls.
The Mahogany neck plays well, with a SlimTaper 'D' profile that sits comfortably in the hand and offers easy reach in all registers. The Rosewood fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers and adds a touch of luxury to the playing experience. Its 12" radius feels nicely flat and consistent, lending itself well to a wide range of playing styles. The simple controls are conveniently placed within easy reach without being intrusive.
The voice of the EJ-160e is bright and clear, with an understated yet detailed low end, smooth mid range and sparkling highs that ring through every note. The Solid Spruce top provides a wide and sensitive dynamic range and helps the guitar to project very well acoustically. The EJ-160E Mini-HB humbucker captures the tone of the instrument beautifully, and adds the versatility required for recording or live situations.
Please be aware that for international buyers import fees are not included in our postage and packaging cost, this only covers the cost of the guitar being sent to you. Import fees will be charged by Customs upon the guitar's arrival in the recipient country. Due to Brexit, this also applies to EU buyers. We advise checking the total import cost with Customs as this is not information we are able to accurately provide.
