Epiphone CEC Coupe Solidbody Nylon String, Antique Natural Overview
The Epiphone CE Coupe Nylon String is an updated version of the legendary solid body classical guitar popularised by Chet Atkins wrapped up in a reduced body size for easy travel. The CE Coupe features a chambered Mahogany body with a Spruce soundboard for true classical acoustic tone when plugged in. The solid Mahogany neck has a comfy 1960's SlimTaper neck profile with a genuine Ebony fingerboard and 1.81" Graphtech nut for a more classical string spacing. Even with the reduced tension of the nylon strings Epiphone have still installed a truss rod which, for a travel guitar where you might be visiting areas with different temperatures and humidity, is a great idea.

The preamp also includes a tuner, both an Aux input (to mix in an MP3 player or other source) and a headphone output. The Shadow® PanaFlex™ HD pickup is placed under the Bone saddle and Ebony bridge.
