Epiphone Classical E1 3/4 Size Nylon-String Guitar Natural 0.75 Natural 0.75


Description
Small Size, Big Sound With Classic Tonewoods
progress as they develop their guitar vocabulary with chords and runs. The Classical E1 3/4 Size uses mahogany for the back, sides and neck. Mahogany is also a favored tonewood for classical guitars and is a perfect compliment to the select cedar top, helping to acoustically amplify the beautiful tone and provide the guitar with a stable foundation in any environment.
Classical E1 3/4 Size Innovations
The Classical E1 3/4 Size has an EZ-Profile “D” shape neck with a traditional 1.89" nut width. The rosewood fingerboard is treated with a PRO-Ease Lubricant, which makes the neck feel smooth and worn in on your fingers, while JumboPRO frets make it easy to hold down Epiphone’s custom Light Gauge Classical strings. The Classical E1 3/4 Size comes standard with Epiphone Deluxe tuners, which have 16:1 ratio tuning gears that help make finding the right pitch quick and intuitive. Ordinary classical guitar tuners have only a 14:1 ratio, which makes fine-tuning difficult, as the string never quite settles in the right place. But tuning is easy with the Classical E1 3/4 Size because the higher 16:1 gear ratio lets you adjust your tuning with greater precision, so it’s easier to find the right pitch and stay there.

My son was holding the guitar 30 seconds after we received it, bumped into his brother by accident and the top of the guitar cracked off. Peice of junk, guitar center said they can't help me since I didn't purchase a warranty. Very disappointing.
Excellent guitar!

I wanted a small body guitar to replace the one my cousin gave me. When I saw this I knew it was the one and ordered it right away. It was the perfect choice and it plays like a dream!

Just purchased and received several of these guitars to begin replacing an aging Fender MC-1 guitar class set. I am already very impressed with them. I have purchased a Lyon classical guitar and more Fender MC-1 guitars over the last several years. None of them have measured up to the wow factor that these receive straight out of the box. My students are always drooling over the beat up Yamaha CG40 that I teach on, but the finish on the Epiphone is much better. The fret job looks better than the Ibanez acoustic basses I recently purchased. I am also excited about the pre-installed strap buttons. I had been toying with the idea of having my students use straps, but didn't want to spend the time or money installing buttons on the old Fenders. Now I don't have to think about it. I hope that they hold up to regular classroom use and that I will be able to continue to give 5 star reviews. Bravo, Epiphone!
