Full Description

Sound that just keeps giving

Versatile and responsive. And, it really does sound even richer the more you play. An instrument that will stay with you for a lifetime. Bringing you the perfect combination of a solid top and laminated back and sides. A solid top gives you a strong, rich, and truly dynamic character that opens up even more with age. While laminated back and sides make a durable, long-lasting build that won't warp in different climates. Perfect for life on the road.

Dynamic, rich, distinctive. The Epiphone's solid top is made from spruce, one of the most desirable soundboards out there due to its versatile nature. This is thanks to its incredible dynamic range and clear, strong, resonant sound. Married to its solid top, are laminated ovangkol back and sides. Together, this pairing of materials works in harmony with one another to deliver a wide tonal spectrum with a full mid-range, and bright trebles. This allows you to play almost any genre or technique. No matter your style, versatility is at your fingertips.

Inspired by the 'King of the Flat Tops'

Familiar with a legendary vibe. The EJ-200SCE Coupe takes inspiration from the iconic J-200 - the 'king of the Flat Tops'. The J-200 was released in 1937, but since then, it's taken generations of players by storm including the Everly Brothers, George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, and Noel Gallagher. A distinctive, powerful sound.

But this unique EJ-200SCE is a more compact, slimmed-down version. Bringing you a unique and distinctive mini-jumbo. It plays beautifully, and it offers great comfort. This is thanks to its more compact, easy-to-play body. And, with a stylish Venetian cutaway, you can reach for the highest of frets, and new melodies with a smooth, comfortable feel. Play blues, country, pop, rock, folk, and much more. Strum heavily, or pick delicately - it can handle it all. Explore a rich, dynamic, and distinctive tone with the style, sound, and playability for regular weekend gigs, and life on the road. Perform to your full potential with Epiphone.

A guitar birthed for the stage

So, it was only right that this Epiphone EJ-200SCE got updated with Fishman electronics. To make live performance one seamless, natural experience from the comfort of your home to the studio, and on to the stage. Explore the luscious sound of your solid top, amplified. All courtesy of a Fishman Sonicore pickup that captures all that solid-topped magic, and delivers it with silky-smooth execution. You also have complete control with a Fishman Presys preamp, allowing you to inject your live sound with your own individual flair. It's time to unleash your persona.
