Top-notch Fishman electronics and a more ergonomically friendly body design make this a wise choice for any performer.

Epiphone's J-15 EC Deluxe acoustic-electric outfit is a superbly built, professional-level dreadnought guitar with a select spruce top and classic cutaway design paired with Fishman undersaddle pickup system. Dreadnought acoustic guitars like the J-15 EC Deluxe are renowned for their commanding volume and full tone, making them an ideal choice for singer-songwriters types looking for a versatile instrument and frontmen/women wanting to stand out in the mix.Includes hardshell case.Top WoodThe J-15 EC Deluxe's select spruce top is complemented by 5-ply black-and-white binding and has a graceful cutaway for easy access to the upper frets. Spruce is a popular tonewood for tops as it gives acoustic guitars plenty of projection while mellowing with age and playing time, maturing with you, to reveal its distinctive character. In other words, the more you play your J-15 EC Deluxe, the better it will sound.Other FeaturesThe body and neck are made from select mahogany, adding tonal warmth and coloration to the power the spruce top provides. The J-15 EC Deluxe's SlimTaper neck is glued to the body with a classic dovetail joint and has a “D” profile, which, along with the cutaway, make it easy to get up and down the fingerboard with ease. The neck features 20 medium frets, a standard 25.5" scale, and its rosewood fingerboard is adorned with pearloid “dot” inlays.Other appointments include a “reverse belly” rosewood bridge and Epiphone-styled, imitation tortoise pickguard with a metal "E" logo as seen on popular, vintage Epiphone acoustics like the Texan and Caballero. Use the drop down menu to choose between Natural and Vintage Sunburst color finishes.ElectronicsWhether you're getting ready to record in the studio or about to show off your musical creations on stage, the J-15 EC Deluxe is equipped to handle all your needs thanks to its Fishman Sonitone undersaddle piezo pickup paired with Fishman Sonicore preamp that offers discrete soundhole control for volume and tone.HardwareThe J-15 EC Deluxe is equipped with Epiphone’s premium die-cast machine heads with classic styled kidney buttons and a 14:1 tuning ratio, giving you fast, more accurate tuning.
