Epiphone El Capitan J-200 Studio Bass

The new El Capitan J-200 Studio Bass is an outstanding choice for bassists who want an acoustic instrument with undeniable style and great sound — whether playing acoustically or plugged in. Taking its stylistic cues from the legendary SJ-200 acoustic (AKA “The King of the Flat-Tops”), it has pearloid crown inlays on its 20-fret Indian Laurel fingerboard and an iconic Moustache bridge.

A solid Sitka Spruce top is paired with layered Mahogany back and sides for inspiring tone, and the Mahogany neck’s 30.5″ scale-length and Medium “C” profile ensure hours of comfortable play. It also comes equipped with a Fishman Sonitone under-saddle pickup and Sonicore preamp, making it ready for any stage or studio.
