help Epiphone Masterbilt DR-500MCE VS FAQ
Is the Epiphone Masterbilt DR-500MCE made from solid wood?
Yes, the DR-500MCE is known for an all-solid-wood construction rather than a laminated back and sides. It pairs a solid spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides.
What electronics are fitted to the DR-500MCE?
The model was equipped with Epiphone's eSonic2 preamp system, combining a NanoFlex under-saddle pickup with a NanoMag magnetic pickup. The two sources can be blended, giving it more stage flexibility than a basic single-pickup acoustic.
What does VS mean in the DR-500MCE VS model name?
VS denotes the Vintage Sunburst finish. The DR body is a dreadnought, while MCE indicates the mahogany construction, cutaway, and electronics.
What should I check before buying a used DR-500MCE?
Inspect the neck angle, bridge, frets, solid top, and the area around the output jacks for damage. Test both the NanoFlex and NanoMag pickups separately because a working preamp does not guarantee that both sources are functioning.
