Epiphone J45EC Studio Solid Top Fishman Presys-II Acoustic Electric Guitar
Buttery Playability - and Big, Balanced Tone!
The Epiphone J-45 EC Studio is one of Epi's best selling acoustic-electric guitars - and for good reason. The J-45 EC Studio's Advanced Jumbo body gives you big sound, while conveying every nuance of your performance.
Its bell-like shape sports a large lower bout and a smaller, rounded upper bout; this combination delivers a focused, balanced tone with robust lows complimented by a brilliant crispness in the mids and highs. And this guitar's comfortable SlimTaper neck and elegant Venetian cutaway make fast runs in the treble range a pleasure to execute. Factor in Shadow's Performer Tuner preamp, and the Epiphone J-45 EC Studio becomes an irresistible bargain.
Features
- Beefy lows, crisp mids, and bell-like highs
- With the J-45 EC Studio, you're always stage-ready
- Perfect for singer-songwriters - or in your thickest track
- Beefy lows and crisp, clear mids
- The Epiphone J-45 EC Studio serves up crisp, clear mids and highs - a refreshing change if you're used to a square-shouldered dreadnought. What's up with that? Epiphone's Advanced Jumbo body shape - first produced in the 1930s - has a big lower bout, and a smaller, rounded upper bout - with a narrow waist in between. This bell-shaped arrangement is what's responsible for the unmistakable clarity that characterizes Epi's Advanced Jumbo acoustics.

With the Epiphone J-45 EC Studio, you're always ready for the spotlight. Fitted with Shadow's Performer Tuner preamp system, the J-45 EC Studio gives you get easy plug 'n' play access to great amplified acoustic guitar tone. The system gives you control over master volume, as well as treble and bass EQ, a tuner/mute button, and a built-in chromatic tuner. And powered by two 2032 lithium batteries, the Shadow Performer is much lighter weight and easier to maintain than older systems that use 9V batteries.
Perfect for singer-songwriters - or in your thickest track
The Epiphone J-45 EC Studio's big, balanced tone is ideal for singer-songwriters. If you perform solo, the J-45 EC Studio is your perfect accompaniment, serving up the natural acoustic volume and bass response you need, along with the midrange clarity and bell-like highs that are so important for enhanced solo playing. With that said, the J-45 EC Studio also sits beautifully in a track. Again, it's this instrument's inherent clarity that makes the difference.
