Epiphone, a brand renowned for its innovative instrument designs, introduces the Coronet, a legendary solid-body guitar model that is proudly manufactured in the USA.
The Epiphone Coronet is part of the USA Collection, crafted in Nashville, Tennessee, by skilled luthiers using high-quality materials and design techniques synonymous with Gibson USA models. Originally introduced in 1958, the Coronet retains its classic symmetrical double cutaway mahogany body shape, 'Bikini' headstock badge, and pickguard shape. Modern improvements include a slightly wider nut width, a comfortable SlimTaper™ neck profile, and a Graph Tech® nut.
Equipped with a single P-90 Soapbar pickup, the solid-body guitar delivers a no-frills rock sound favored by legendary musicians like Jimi Hendrix and Johnny Marr. Its slim body depth enhances balance and reduces weight for comfortable playing over extended periods. Available in Vintage Cherry or Ebony finish options, each Epiphone Coronet comes with a hardshell guitar case for added protection during storage and transportation.
