Epiphone PR-4E Acoustic-Electric Guitar
The Epiphone PR-4E Acoustic-Electric guitar has been a best seller since its first release over a decade ago, giving beginners a chance to learn on a guitar that had both professional sound and quality construction at a great price. At Epiphone, we take all musicians seriously—whether you’ve been playing all your life or just picked up a guitar for the first time--and the PR-4E continues Epiphone’s long tradition of building every instrument to last a lifetime.
The PR-4E features a select Spruce top. The ‘top’ of any acoustic guitar is the source of its “voice” and acts as a kind of soundboard. Spruce is one of the preferred tonewoods when making acoustic guitars for its ability to hold up to hours of playing time in all kinds of venues and still project a rich tone. The PR-4E’s select Spruce top is supported by vintage style X-bracing—just like vintage Epiphone Masterbilts--which not only supports the top but also gives the PR-4E considerable volume and balance for its size. It’s a perfect guitar for singer-songwriters too, and thanks to the quality construction and combination of Spruce and Mahogany, the PR-4E doesn’t suffer from sounding “boomy” or “scooped” like other beginner’s guitars. The Venetian cutaway allows easy reach to the upper frets and gives the PR-4E a distinctive profile that’s both modern and classic.
The PR-4E’s Mahogany body features 5-layer white and black binding and the Mahogany neck and single layer white binding along the neck. The Epiphone trademark Sloped Dovewing headstock features premium covered 14:1 ratio machine heads (tuners) along with a classic 60s era Epiphone logo.
Plugging In!
The PR-4E’s piezo pickup system is located under the saddle. The guitar’s built-in electronics are mounted on the upper bout of the guitar and feature easy-to-use boost and cut controls for Treble, Middle, and Bass. There is also a Volume control along with a phase switch and a low battery light indicator. A 9-volt battery compartment is located next to the EQ controls allowing for quick changes during a show.
Though the Epiphone Studio Acoustic-15C is a perfect match to amplify the PR-4E’s rich tone, the on-board EQ section allows a player to easily and quickly make fine adjustments for optimum sound.
Epiphone Studio Acoustic-15C Amp
The Epiphone Studio Acoustic-15C is a power-perfect 15-watt amp with a specially designed 6.5” speaker in a closed-back cabinet. The amp includes 2 inputs—both a ¼” instrument cable input (included) and an XLR (mic) cable input with individual volume controls for each channel as well as a ¼ headphone input--features rarely found on a small amplifiers. With the PR-4E Performance Pack, you’re ready to play anywhere!
And, the Epiphone Studio Acoustic 15C also includes a handy 3-band EQ, a Rocker switch, and switchable chorus effect with chorus speed. Sound engineers frequently use a chorus effect to emphasize an acoustic guitar’s natural tone when mixing it with other electric instruments through a sound system. The Epiphone Studio Acoustic-15C’s multiple chorus options allow you to easily “dial in” your PR-4E’s tone on any size stage. The Epiphone PR-4E Acoustic/Electric Player Pack also includes an Epiphone gig bag, chromatic tuner, strap, picks, and a 1/4" guitar cable.
