Here for sale we have an Epiphone Masterbilt Texan Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar in Antique Natural Aged Gloss finish. Made in Indonesia in 2021, this guitar consists of a Solid Sitka Spruce top, Mahogany back and sides, a Mahogany neck, and a 20-fret Laurel fingerboard. Other appointments include Mother of Pearl Parallelogram inlays, 3-on-a-plate tuners with Ivory buttons, an Advanced Jumbo Reverse Belly bridge, and a Fishman OEM-SON-GT2 Sonitone OEM System with soundhole-mounted controls for master volume and master tone.
The Mahogany neck plays very well, with a Traditional 1960s Slim Taper C profile feeling comfortable in the hand and providing a smooth and responsive playing experience in all registers. The Gloss finish to the rear assists with smooth transitions up and down the neck, making the 25.5” scale feel easily manoeuvrable. The Laurel fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers, and with its 12” radius provides a nicely flat and consistent surface right the way up the register. The familiar lines of the square shoulder dreadnought body shape are as smooth and comfortable as ever, ensuring an enjoyable playing experience in either standing or seated positions.
The voice of the Masterbilt Texan is bright and shimmery thanks to its Mahogany and Spruce construction. The low end is understated yet detailed, with a smooth midrange that ensures your chord playing sounds tight and controlled. The top end is bright enough to accommodate both strumming and fingerstyle techniques with ease. The Solid Spruce top projects very well, providing a wide dynamic range that feels sensitive to the player’s touch. This is a guitar which sounds just as at home as part of an ensemble as it does as a solo instrument. When amplified, the pickup presents the guitar's sound on full display keeping its natural rich tones.
