It combines a slope-shouldered acoustic body with an electric-guitar-style magnetic pickup, volume and tone controls, producing a distinctive sound unlike a conventional piezo-equipped acoustic guitar.This particular guitar has been extremely well cared for and has recently received a professional setup at Willie’s American Guitars in St. Paul, Minnesota.Professional Willie’s setup & upgrades. During the recent setup, the guitar received:***New bone nut***New bone saddle***Unslotted bone bridge pins***Bone strap buttons***New Holter Premium Pick Guard***Complete professional setup by Willie’s American GuitarsThe result is a guitar that is ready to play rather than an older instrument that will require setup work immediately after purchase.SpecificationsThe Limited Edition EJ-160E features a solid spruce top with mahogany back and sides, mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard and rosewood reverse-belly bridge. It has a comfortable 24.75” scale length, 12” fingerboard radius, 1.68” nut width, 20 medium frets and Epiphone Deluxe 18:1 vintage-style tuners. Electronics consist of Epiphone’s Stacked P-100 magnetic pickup mounted at the end of the fingerboard with master Volume and Tone controls using full-size 500K pots. Unlike most modern acoustic/electrics, the EJ-160E’s magnetic pickup gives it that distinctive electric/acoustic character for which the J-160E design became famous.

Its magnetic P-100 pickup, volume and tone controls and nickel-string-compatible design are fundamental to the character of the instrument. Epiphone actually supplied this generation with .012–.053 nickel strings from the factory. That makes it especially appealing to Beatles enthusiasts or anyone looking for the unusual combination of an acoustic dreadnought and electric-guitar-style amplified tone.Finding one in mint condition, with a hard case and a fresh professional Willie’s setup with upgraded bone components, makes this an especially attractive example.
