The Epiphone El Capitan J-200 Studio Bass Aged Vintage Sunburst that translates the King of the Flat-tops to the low strings
The J-200 is the most iconic jumbo acoustic guitar Gibson ever made, and Epiphone has now translated that design into a fully functional acoustic bass. The El Capitan J-200 Studio Bass borrows the Super Jumbo shape, the characteristic Moustache bridge, and the crown inlays from its famous predecessor, but is fully set up as a serious bass instrument. In Aged Vintage Sunburst, it's an instrument that looks seasoned before it's even played.
The solid sitka spruce top combined with the laminated mahogany back and sides gives the El Capitan a warm, full sound with good acoustic projection for a bass instrument. The Fishman Sonitone undersaddle pickup with Sonicore preamp makes it instantly stage-ready, providing a natural amplified sound that doesn't distort the acoustic character of the bass. Whether you play acoustically or plugged in, the El Capitan sounds convincing.
The mahogany neck with Medium C-profile and Indian Laurel fretboard with 20 frets on a 30.5" scale offers comfortable playability suitable for long sessions. Pearloid crown inlays, the iconic Moustache bridge, and the Aged Vintage Sunburst finish make the El Capitan an instrument that proudly carries its J-200 heritage.
The El Capitan J-200 Studio Bass is for the bassist who wants to play acoustically without compromising on presence and style.
