Product Description

The next generation of Epiphone’s widely loved archtop. A genuine Epiphone original, the Uptown Kat ES is drenched in style from the trapeze tailpiece to the metallic finish. This is your perfect alternative semi-hollow.

Construction

youtube video thumbnail

A five-ply maple and poplar combo is the choice of body wood, with two beautifully cut F-holes. Extravagant without being garish. The mahogany neck has been glued into the body for extra sturdiness.

Its Slim Taper ‘C’ neck shape is modelled after the Gibson greats and is renowned for its comfort. On top is a 12” radius ebony fretboard, making for a classy, quality package in every department. Hardware appointments include a Graph Tech nut, LockTone ABR bridge and that trapeze tailpiece – an excellent balance between assured stability and class.

Sound

The Uptown Kat is equipped with two fiery Mini-Probucker FB720 pickups. These bad boys have everyone fooled with their indistinguishable vintage tone. The lows are warm, the sustain prolonged and brightness snappy.

They incorporate the same alloy used by Gibson at their Kalamazoo factory – you know you’re getting the best in sound. Match them up with an airy clean tone or crunchier drive for outstanding results.

Mr Russell Cottee19th Feb 2020

The instrument, as received, is very well made and has a great range of sounds BUT it was advertised as sporting a Bigsby tremolo arm, which was not on the guitar as received. When queried, I was told that the website team had used the wrong photo and spec, as the tremolo version had yet to be issued. All well and good but this bordered on false advertising and I wasn't offered any form of reduction - a bit shoddy IMO 😕
