Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.
Blending 1930s jazz-age flair with modern acoustic-electric flexibility, the Epiphone Masterbilt Olympic Archtop centers around a carved solid spruce top and laminated mahogany back and sides. A hard maple and mahogany neck features a 25.5" scale, 20-fret rosewood fingerboard, and a classic Rounded C profile, all coated in an Aged Gloss finish. Floating hardware like the adjustable Ebonoid bridge sits alongside Historic Reissue tuners crowned with Marboloid buttons. Amplification is handled discreetly by a Shadow undersaddle piezo and 3-band EQ system with a phase filter. Weighing a mere 4 lbs 1 oz, this non-cutaway archtop includes a protective hardshell case.
