Epiphone Genesis

They were prototyped in Japan, but due to cost considerations were manufactured at a factory owned by Pearl Drums in Taichung, Taiwan.

All models featured a solid mahogany body, solid mahogany set neck, rosewood fretboard, two humbucker pickups, two volume controls, one master tone control, and a DPDT switch used for coil tapping.

The Genesis also featured an elongated headstock with 3 + 3 tuners, 22 frets, a front-mounted output jack, a Tune-o-matic bridge, and stop tailpiece.

[3] The new PRO model includes two tone and two push/pull volume controls that coil split each humbucker individually.

The jack has been relocated to the standard Les Paul position and the two humbucker pickups are covered on all models.
