The Masterbilt Olympic Acoustic-Electric Guitar is a smaller-sized archtop with an arched solid spruce top with traditional Longitudinal Bracing, a mahogany body and classic f-holes. Inside the upper f-hole is a 1930s-era replica Epiphone label. The Olympic is available in traditional Honeyburst and Violin Burst aged gloss finishes, each with unique color tones inspired by Epiphones priceless vintage collection in Nashville, Tennessee. The tortoise-style pickguard comes unattached. Pickguard hardware comes included. Case sold separately.Like Epiphones original ’30s-era Olympic, the modern Masterbilt Olympic has a unique body profile thats smaller than typical archtops but with a tonal range that belies its small size. With its signature f-holes and solid spruce top, the Olympic is an ideal instrument for singers and soloists. Both the body and top feature single-layer ivory and black color binding. The mahogany neck has a full-rounded C-profile that is glued to the body with a dovetail joint for a precise fit so the Olympic will resonate as one piece of wood. The rosewood fretboard has 20 medium frets, a 25.5 scale length, and pearloid Dot inlays modeled after the original Olympics.The compact tone of the Olympic sounds beautiful unamplified on a small stage or in the studio. But now the cutting-edge eSonic HD (High Definition) preamp system and Shadow NanoFlex HD Under-saddle pickup make it possible for archtop players to hear their instrument amplified exactly as they hear it unplugged. The Shadow NanoFlex HD Under-saddle pickup has easy-to-access controls for Master Volume and Master EQ mounted just inside the lower f-hole. Now you have complete control over how much of the acoustic guitar is amplified. The pre-amp system is powered by a standard 9-volt battery that is easy to access, located near the 1/4 output jack.
