Pickups and hardware
The Fishman pickup positioned discreetly inside the soundhole is a low-impedance pickup that not only picks up string vibrations but also top and body vibrations as well for a truly acoustic tone. The Sonic preamp features an easy-access volume control and treble control. There's also a "phase" switch that instantly cuts feedback without affecting tone. The Epiphone Masterbilt 2015 AJ-45ME Acoustic/Electric features Epiphone's quality nickel hardware and stays in-tune thanks to world famous Grover™ Sta-Tite™ machine heads with a pro-level 18:1 tuning ratio.
