Originally the Coronet came with a single Epiphone New York pickup[1] in the treble position.
[2] In the 1970s, production of the Coronet came to a halt when Epiphone left its facilities in Kalamazoo, Michigan, to move overseas.
[citation needed] There was a short run of Coronets in the late 1990s, which were made in Korea.
The short-lived USA Coronet of 1990 had a similar pickup layout and matching electronics except for the addition of a two-octave rosewood fingerboard with rectangular block markers and a reverse droopy Explorer-style headstock.
[citation needed] Epiphone reissued the Coronet again in 2020[3] fitted with a wrap-around bridge, a single P-90 pickup, and available in black and cherry red finishes.
