The Epiphone PR-5E Acoustic/Electric Guitar: Ideal for High-Volume Performance
Somebody asked me via Twitter D-Message the other day why the Epiphone PR-5E Acoustic/Electric Guitar is considered “Ideal for Live, High-Volume Performance”. This person had obviously been reading out current website feature (located here) and it dawned on me that most people probably don’t realize that the PR-5E has a shallower depth than a traditional acoustic. The PR-5E body is only 3.5″ thick which reduces the possibility of feedback at high volume… but the cool thing is that with it’s jumbo-like lower bout and the impressive eSonic preamp system with NanoFlex pickup… it still sounds rich and full through a PA system. The Florentine cutaway also makes it easy for the shredders to access the upper frets. If you want to learn more about this guitar CLICK HERE. These are great performance acoustic guitars! That’s Steve in the picture… he just set this one up in our USA facikity and it will soon be on its way to a dealer and a new home with some lucky guitarist.

For over 50 years the Epiphone Texan guitar has been putting smiles on the faces of guitar players
When I made my way through the Epiphone USA set-up facility here in Nashville this morning I noticed that some of the crew were going through final QC and set-up procedures on a good number of Inspired by 1964 Texan’s, preparing to send them to dealers across the country. Man… what a great guitar! The history of this instrument alone is mind-boggling… when you consider that everyone from Paul McCartney to Peter Frampton to Noel Gallagher have used this guitar to write and record some of the most important pop/rock songs in history. But what really blows you away is when you hear this incredible instrument. For over 50 years the Texan has been putting smiles on the faces of guitar players… and it continued to do so this morning with Allen above. We are about to feature 4 acoustic/electric guitars on our homepage… including the Inspired by 1964 Texan. You can check out the feature story now by following the link below. It has a lot of info about the Texan and even includes a short mp3 sound clip. http://www.epiphone.com/news.asp?NewsID=1851

something you wont see every day
Here’s something you won’t see every day… in fact, you’ll probably never see it at all. This is a proto-type Les Paul that we made a few years back and it is the only one in existence. For one reason or another it never made it into the line but it was a pretty cool guitar. The top was a beautiful natural Mahogany and the back featured this full-body mural of Les with his signature. For some reason it made an appearance at Epi headquartes today so I thought I would share.
