Epiphone AJ-210CE Acoustic/Electric Outfit
Featuring Shadow Electronics and Hard Case
Epiphone presents the new AJ-210CE Acoustic/Electric Outfit, a superb professional dreadnaught guitar featuring a Select Spruce top with classic cutaway, state of the art Shadow Performer Tuner™ Preamp and NanoFlex™ under saddle pickup system, plus a hard case. Dreadnought acoustic guitars like the AJ-210CE are renowned for their commanding volume and full tone that’s perfect for singer songwriters or for leading a band. And like every Epiphone, the AJ-210CE comes with Epiphone’s Limited Lifetime Guarantee.
Select Spruce Top: The AJ-210CE has a Select Spruce top with 5-ply black and white binding and a graceful cutaway for easy access to the upper frets. Spruce is classic tone wood for powerful acoustic guitars and will mellow with age and playing time to reveal a distinctive character. The more you play the AJ-210CE, the better it will sound. The body and neck are made from Select Mahogany. The SlimTaper™ neck has an easy-to-play “D” profile and is glued to the body with a classic dovetail joint. The neck features 20 medium frets, a standard 25.5” scale, and a Rosewood fingerboard with pearloid “Dot” inlays.
The AJ-210CE has a “reverse belly” Rosewood bridge and an Epiphone styled imitation tortoise pickguard with a metal "E" logo as seen on vintage Epiphone acoustics like the Texan and Caballero. The AJ-210CE is available in Natural and Vintage Sunburst color finishes.
Plug in with Shadow™ Electronics: When you’re ready to plug in, the AJ-210CE features Shadow Performer Tuner™ Preamp and Shadow NanoFlex™ under saddle pickup system. Shadow is the world leader in acoustic guitar electronics. Now you can hear the true sound of your guitar on any size stage. Made by Shadow®, the new Performer Tuner™ preamp features all the controls you need to tailor the sounds of your AJ-210CE to suit your playing style, volume level, and venue size.
Pro features include a built-in Chromatic Tuner, Master Volume, EQ controls for Bass and Treble, a Low Battery indicator, and a Phase switch to help eliminate unwanted feedback. A handy Tuner/Mute button allows you to plug or unplug your guitar silently.
The Performer Tuner™ preamp uses two 2032 lithium watch batteries that are lightweight and provide significantly longer life than heavy 9-volt batteries. Under the AJ-210CE's compensated saddle is Shadow's proprietary NanoFlex™ low-impedance pickup. Unlike a harsh sounding piezo pickups, the NanoFlex’s™ unique and flexible sensing material features integrated active electronics that pick up not only string vibrations but also top and body vibrations as well for a truly acoustic tone.
Epiphone Rock Solid Hardware: The AJ-210CE comes with Epiphone’s Premium Die-Cast machine heads with classic styled kidney buttons and a tuning 14:1 ratio for fast and accurate tuning. Strap buttons are pre-installed and the AJ-210CE is set up at the factory with legendary D'Addario Phosphor (12-53) strings.
Lifetime Warranty: Like all Epiphones, the AJ-210CE comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty plus Gibson 24/7/365 Customer Service.
