Epiphone Coronet Electric Guitar - Ebony

Our Take:

Epiphone's Coronet is an old fan-favorite that has been resurrected for the modern era. Much like a Junior, the Coronet operates on the age old adage that less is more. Utilizing a single Epiphone PRO™ P-90 Dogear pickup, the Coronet delivers unbridled tone from a symmetrical double-cutaway mahogany body that features many of the accoutrements of the early Coronet models. This new Coronet lacks absolutely nothing in terms of sound, style, or playing feel - and you're barely breaking the bank!

Epiphone's Take:

First introduced in 1958, the Epiphone Coronet was one of Epiphone's first and most successful original solid body electric guitar designs. The latest version brings back many of the features of the early Coronet models including the symmetrical double-cutaway mahogany body with a single Epiphone PRO™ P-90 Dogear pickup, three on a side reduced sized Kalamazoo headstock with Epiphone Bikini badge and ivory button tuning machines, and a white butterfly pickguard with foil E logo. The Epiphone Coronet comes equipped with a glued-in mahogany neck with a medium C profile, Indian laurel fretboard with 12" radius and 22 medium jumbo frets, 1 volume and 1 tone control with CTS® potentiometers, and an Epiphone Lightning Bar compensated wraparound bridge.
