Product Description
The Epiphone El Dorado has earned legendary status among acoustic players, prized for its vintage charm and distinctive character. It’s an instrument that holds a particularly special place in the heart of Grammy-nominated artist Marcus King, serving as the very first guitar he ever owned and later inspiring the title of his 2020 album, El Dorado.
Now, Epiphone celebrates that enduring connection with a stunning limited-edition signature model that pays tribute to both the iconic original and one of modern music’s most respected songwriters.
Vintage-inspired design
The Epiphone Marcus King El Dorado stays true to the spirit of the classic ‘70s original, combining classic looks with dependable modern craftsmanship. Its square-shoulder dreadnought body pairs a solid Spruce top with solid Rosewood back and sides, delivering a warm, resonant voice that only gets better with age. Elegant four-ply top binding and single-ply back binding complete the look, along with a custom pickguard inspired by Marcus’s own El Dorado.
Feel and tone fit for a king
A 25.5" scale Mahogany neck with a comfortable “C” profile offers a comfy playing experience, joined to the body with a traditional dovetail neck joint for maximum sustain. The Rosewood fingerboard features 20 frets and eye-catching mother-of-pearl block inlays, while premium appointments including a bone nut, compensated bone saddle and Epiphone Deluxe tuners ensure reliable tuning stability and performance. Unique bridge inlays featuring the outline of South Carolina and Tennessee’s Tri-Star emblem give a subtle nod to Marcus King's roots and journey.
Ready for the stage
Whether you're recording in the studio or stepping onto the stage, the Marcus King El Dorado is ready for any performance. An L.R. Baggs Element Bronze under-saddle pickup and preamp system captures the guitar’s natural acoustic character with detail, while discreet soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls keep adjustments quick and easy without spoiling the clean, vintage-style aesthetic.
Supplied in a black hardshell case featuring Marcus King signature graphics, this limited-edition acoustic is a rare opportunity to own a modern tribute to a true Epiphone classic.
Features

- Rounded “C” neck: Comfortable and familiar in the hand, the rounded “C” profile Mahogany neck makes long playing sessions effortless.
- 25.5” scale: Offering excellent string tension, clarity and projection, the traditional 25.5" scale length delivers a balanced acoustic response.
- L.R. Baggs Element Bronze VTC electronics: A premium under-saddle pickup and preamp system that faithfully captures the guitar’s natural acoustic voice, complete with discreet volume and tone controls for easy on-the-fly adjustments.
