This rare, upscale Ephiphone was crafted at Gibson’s Kalamazoo, MI factory; as the Texan was analogous to the J-45 in Gibson’s lineup, the Frontier was Epiphone’s spin on the top tier Dove platform, featuring a square-shouldered dreadnought design.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nTonewoods include an X-braced Sitka spruce top, solid maple back and sides, mahogany neck, and bound rosewood fingerboard. Tonally, this Frontier is bold and clear, with the sparkling articulation of maple readily apparent: there’s plenty of power and kick on tap, with a certain presence and punchiness via the longer 25 1\/2“ scale. Beyond its projection capabilities, this Frontier is detailed and warm, a true best-of-both-worlds player, rewarding both as a strummer and a fingerpicker. Weighing 4lbs 15oz, this Frontier FT-110N has been professionally setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike’s Guitar Bar with 12-53 bronze strings and easy-playing action.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nNeck Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Wood: Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e\n-Shape: Slender C, measuring .825” 1st fret, .975” 9th fret\u003cbr\u003e\n-Fretboard: Rosewood, notched block inlay\u003cbr\u003e\n-Frets: Medium jumbo, no wear\u003cbr\u003e\n-Scale Length: 25 ½”\u003cbr\u003e\n-Nut: 1 9\/16”\u003cbr\u003e\n-Tuners: Kluson Deluxe double-line\u003cbr\u003e\n-Serialization: Six-digit stamp dates to ‘68\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBody Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Wood: Sitka spruce, maple\u003cbr\u003e\n-Bracing: X\u003cbr\u003e\n-Bridge: Belly down rosewood, adjustable rosewood saddle\u003cbr\u003e\n-Plastics: Tortoise pickguard with Epsilon “E” badge\u003cbr\u003e\n-Marquetry: Multi-ply purfling and soundhole rosette\u003cbr\u003e\n-Label: Serialized, Kalamazoo, MI, blue rectangle\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe gloss Natural nitro lacquer finish has ambered gently, exhibiting broad checking, and there is limited strap-related wear adjacent to the lower strap button and on the back central to the lower bout.
