Epiphone Dot Studio Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar

The Epiphone Dot Studio Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar builds on Epiphone's great tradition of archtops such as the legendary Sheraton and Emperor. Simplified controls and minimalist styling provide great functionality and elegant visual appeal while powerful Vintage Alnico V Plus pickups give it plenty of bite. Drawing on the classic 335 vibe, with mahogany top, back, sides, and set neck, the Dot Studio guitar dishes out hot blues and rock when overdriven or thick jazz tones clean. The scale length is 24-3/4", with a nut width of 1-17/25". The LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece provide more sustain and string changing easier.

The Epiphone DOT Studio brings new looks, new functionality and new affordability to Epiphone’s wide array of semi-hollowbody electric guitars. Bold new finish colors give the Studio model its own distinctive flair, and the simplified electronics - just a single tone and single volume control - make for easier sound management. The trademark DOT design, named for the pearl dot fingerboard markers on early models, was invented by Gibson in 1958 to meld traditional features of hollowbody electrics with the performance of a solidbody. The thinbody, double-cutaway style was adopted by such legendary Epiphones of the 1960s as the Riviera and Sheraton. The Epiphone DOT Studio features black hardware, no fingerboard inlay, die-cast machine heads and open-coil Alnico-V humbucking pickups (with a HOT pickup in bridge position).
