What we say:
At A Glance
Fresh from Epiphone is the new generation of the Kat, the Uptown Kat ES. It takes the swagger of the original design and loads it with a number of great features. The semi-hollow archtop gives the player a fantastic open and full sound which is then built upon with a great pickup choice. A 5-ply maple/poplar body fits firmly with the mahogany neck. A Slim Taper C profile makes for an easy playing experience. One of the many charms of this model is the ease of switching across to it after using a Les Paul due to the familiar feel. It is bursting with retro style and adds an exciting new twist to a well loved design.
Features We Love:
Epiphone Mini-ProBucker
These newly designed FB720 pickups are a joy to the ears. They have been voiced in a way that produces a warm sound with bright highs. They are very responsive to the level of attack, allowing the player to create the tone they wish from the fine nuances of their playing.
Grover Rotomatic Tuners
Featuring an 18:1 ratio, these tuners do a great job of getting you in tune quickly and easily. Grover are known for their quality tuners and high accuracy, so you can be assured that they will do the job of helping to make the process of tuning a painless one.
Trapeze Tailpiece
Not only functional but essential to the vibe of this guitar, the trapeze tailpiece is a great touch. It is great for those guitarists who like to play behind the bridge and provides a stable hold for the strings. The matching hardware colour throughout really solidifies the look of this gem.
Highlights:
- Retro style with modern functionality
- Great as a first semi-hollow due to the familiar feel with the body shape
- Mini-ProBucker pickups give a rich and responsive tone
