A meticulously crafted rock machine with heritage dating back to 1958.
The Epiphone Coronet lets you tap into the raw power that fueled the British Invasion. This USA-made reissue of the iconic 1958 model provides the stripped-down design and tone that shaped the sound of rock and roll. The mahogany body and neck deliver a warm, balanced tone with clear mids, ideal for driving tube amps and pedals. A single P-90 dogear pickup serves up punchy tones with a hint of grit. Simple controls keep your focus on playing and not knob twiddling. Whether conjuring the rawness of The Kinks and The Who, or forging your own signature sound, the Coronet stands ready to inspire.
All the Right Curves in All the Right Places
The Coronet's double-cutaway mahogany body provides a lightweight feel and resonance that rings through chords and single-note lines. The rounded profile offers a comfortable playing experience in any position. A sleek vintage-style nickel bridge and tuners complete the minimalist vibe, putting the focus squarely on the guitar itself.
Play All Night With a Fast, Smooth Neck
The Coronet's mahogany neck features a SlimTaper D profile that plays fast and feels like an old friend right out of the case. The Indian laurel fingerboard provides a smooth playing surface for string bends, vibrato and chord work. A shorter 24.75" scale length makes extended chords and solos easy on your fretting hand.
Punchy Tones From a Legendary Pickup
The P-90 dogear pickup that made the original Coronet a rock 'n' roll icon lives on in this reissue. With an enamel-coated coil wrapped around an Alnico 5 bar magnet, this pickup serves up focused midrange, crisp treble and firm low end. Backed by 250K CTS potentiometers, the P-90 retains articulation at high gain settings. Dial in everything from warm cleans to saturated overdrive with the simple volume and tone controls.
Experience the guitar that shaped a generation of rock music. The Epiphone Coronet delivers the stripped-down tone and style that fueled the rise of British rock in the '60s. Now made in the USA, this reissue provides the authentic sound and feel of the original at an exceptional value. Plug in, crank up your amp and write your own chapter in rock history with the Epiphone Coronet.
