Epiphone is now officially making Coronets in Nashville, Tennessee, bringing the cult-classic back home as it becomes the first solidbody electric guitar to join the brand’s USA Collection.
Launched in Vintage Cherry or Ebony, both given a lick of gloss nitrocellulose lacquer before leaving the shop floor, this US-made Coronet – the news of its launch broken by the Gibson Gazette – is a big deal for fans of the single-pickup electrics. The drive does not get much simpler than this, nor much fun, and the look of these is totally old-school.
