Epiphone Pro-1 Ultra Acoustic

A while back we wrote about Epiphone’s 30 under 300 x-mas promotion. We featured the SG Special. Part of the offering are 15 acoustics for under $300 or pretty close. The Pro-1 Ultra above has a listing of $329 on the company’s web site.

The Ultra is part of the new Pro-1 series which includes 4 models. This electro acoustic cut-away with Shadow Performer preamp and NanoFlex pickup system is the most expensive of the lot. But still it won’t kill you. All Pro-1 series guitars are loaded with new easy-to-play features. There’s an EZ-profile Neck, JumboPRO Frets, a shorter scale length, PRO-Ease strings and believe it or not the list goes on.

Now we’ve always adhered to the It’s long way to the top. (If you want to rock ‘n’ roll) school of thought, but if the ease of the Pro 1 series gets more guitars in kids hands then we’re down.

The Pro 1 series starts at $119 for the Classic and goes up to $329 for the Ultra.
