EASY TO PLAY FEATURES
The PRO-1 Ultra acoustic/electric guitar has all of the PRO-1 Collections innovative easy-to-play features:
• Less fatigue. Wrap your hand around the PRO-1 Ultra neck and youll immediately feel how comfortable it is. Our new EZ-Profile neck is designed so your hand can easily form chords without feeling fatigued.
• Effortless Fretting. Epiphone JumboPRO frets make fretting notes and chords seem effortless. JumboPRO frets are taller and wider than smaller frets. So, when you push down a string, its easier to make string contact with the fret with less hand fatigue and finger friction.
• Shorter is Easier. Scale length is the distance from the saddle to the nut. The shorter the scale length, the looser the strings feel. Because the PRO-1s scale length is almost 1 shorter than most acoustic guitars, the strings are under less tension so you dont have to press hard to get good tone. And since the frets are closer together-- making chords is easier!
• Make friction fiction. String and fingerboard friction not only slows your playing but also can hurt. Our PRO-Ease string and fingerboard coating provides sleek, smooth action with reduced string noise.
• No pain, no gain? NonsenseEpiphone believes in no pain. Lighter gauge strings are easier to play so every PRO-1 is set-up and equipped with Epiphone Ultra-Light strings.
• Easy action. With Epiphones Dual-Action truss rod, you can adjust the neck in both directions, which not only stabilizes the neck but also makes set-up easier and more precise.
Easy to Use
The PRO-1 Classic is a classical style acoustic guitar with a Select Cedar top. Cedar is one of the "tonewoods" preferred by classical guitar luthiers for its "sweet" and individual sound. The PRO-1s Custom PRO-Prietary Bracing allows the natural tone of the Select Cedar top to ring out with clear highs and balanced lows so a player can easily hear their progress as they develop their guitar vocabulary with chords and runs.
The PRO-1 Classic uses Mahogany for the back, sides, and neck. Mahogany is also a favored tonewood for classical guitars and is a perfect compliment to the Select Cedar top, helping to acoustically amplify the PRO-1 Classics incredible tone and also provide the guitar with a stable foundation in any environment. The beauty of both Cedar and Mahogany gives the PRO-1 Classic a sophisticated profile. Plus, the PRO-1 Classic has a reduced body depth which makes it easy to hold for long hours of playing.
Hardware
The PRO-Classic has an EZ-Profile D Shape neck with a 1.75 nut width, slightly narrower compared to traditional classical guitars. The narrower spacing makes it easier to reach all the strings when learning chords.
Another innovation the PRO-1 Classic offers is a shorter scale, which makes learning chords faster. PRO-Ease Lubricant makes the neck feel smooth and worn in on your fingers, and JumboPRO frets make it easy to hold down Epiphones custom Light Gauge Classical strings.
A guitar that plays this easy has to be able to get in tune and stay in tune fast. The PRO-1 Classic features Epiphone Deluxe tuners, which have 16:1 ratio tuning gears that help make finding the right pitch quick and intuitive. Ordinary classical guitar tuners have only a 14:1 ratio, which makes fine tuning difficult, as the string never quite settles in the right place. But tuning is easy with the PRO-1 Classic because the higher 16:1 gear ratio lets you adjust your tuning with greater precision so its easier to find the right pitch and stay there.
