in dreadnought gitaren

A steel-string classic

The Epiphone Dove Studio takes its cue from parent company Gibson's legendary dreadnought model, the Dove Original. Like its bigger (and much, much more expensive) sibling, the Dove Studio features a maple back, sides, and neck, while the fingerboard and bridge are both made from Indian laurel and are adorned with pearloid inlays (parallelograms on the fingerboard and dove wings on the bridge). The guitar features a solid spruce top for a full and resonant sound and, like its Gibson counterpart, is equipped with a pickup system. The Dove Studio is also an eyecatcher thanks to its cream-coloured binding (three-ply for the top and single-ply for the back and fingerboard) as well as its high-gloss "Violin Burst" finish - to say nothing of the classic pickguard with its unconventional shape and elaborate dove inlay.

An electro-acoustic in disguise

The Epiphone Dove Studio - which incidentally gets its name from the dovetail joint used to join the neck and body together and was originally marketed as the Dove Pro - features a Fishman Sonicore pickup and preamp system, the latter of which is mounted inside the soundhole so that the volume and tone controls don't taint the guitar's classic looks. The 6.35mm output socket in turn is discreetly housed in the strap button on the bottom edge of the guitar. As one would expect from a dreadnought, the relatively large body size makes the Dove Studio a fairly loud, full-sounding instrument that combines a punchy low end with plenty of presence and a bright-sounding treble response.

Old-school meets modern

Anyone who can handle a large dreadnought guitar without difficulty will enjoy the Epiphone Studio Dove, which combines "old school" standards with modern updates. A comfortable playing feel is ensured by the guitar's 648mm (25.5") scale length and 20 medium jumbo frets as well as the nut width of 42.7mm - the latter being the same as found on the majority of steel acoustic guitars. Players who look for ease of maintenance when choosing an instrument will also appreciate the Dove Studio thanks to features such as the easily adjustable truss rod, which allows the bow of the neck - featuring Gibson's typical "SlimTaper" D profile - to be altered effortlessly. The neck profile of course also allows solo runs and melodies to be played faster and more comfortably than on most other steel acoustic models. Allergy sufferers should note, however, that the Dove Studio's hardware is made from nickel.

About Epiphone

Today, Epiphone is known only as the Asian budget offshoot of Gibson. Yet both companies were once independent, equal, and also bitter rivals. The roots of Epiphone go back to the 1870s and to Anastasios Stathopoulo, a Greek instrument maker, who emigrated to America in 1903 with his son Epaminondas (“Epi” for short). Epi changed the name of the firm to the "Epiphone Banjo Company" after taking over the family business in 1928. During this year, Epiphone also began to manufacture guitars, which rapidly came to dominate their sales. In 1957, Epiphone was taken over by C.M.I., which already included Gibson, but continued as a separate brand until 1970, when manufacturing was outsourced to Asia. Well-known Epiphone models include the Casino, played by the Beatles, and the Sheraton, John Lee Hooker's instrument of choice.

A versatile Rock & Roll classic

The Dove Studio is Epiphone's take on a legendary Gibson model that has been in production since 1962 and, in the hands of artists like Elvis Presley, the Rolling Stones, U2, the Foo Fighters, and Tenacious D, has helped to write Rock history. With this pedigree, it goes without saying that the Dove is a great instrument for guitarists in Rock and Alternative bands, and this Epiphone version allows amateur musicians to get their hands on that legendary sound. Singer-songwriters can make excellent use of this guitar too - either unplugged when they want to practise or amplified through a PA using the onboard pickup and preamp when gigging (so a microphone is completely unnecessary). Players who intend to travel a lot with this guitar can ensure that it is optimally protected with the matching Epiphone case (article no. 187707), which also has plenty of space for storing essential accessories.

Hele mooie diepe klank in deze gitaar. Speelt licht en prachtig afgewerkt. 300 euro! Hoe kunnen ze het ervoor maken? Zo goed en mooi! Een no-brainer!

Truly Astonishing Product

B Emery 16.10.2017

I recieved the Epiphone Dove Pro this week. The packaging was very well thought put and I am impressed by the recyclable cushioning material. The product box itself seemed to be faultless, and the guitar itself also, aling with all of the additional accessory bags etc. I would be very hard pressed to find any fault with this product or service from Thomann. I intended on playing one in person before purchase, but was unable to do so. When it arrived and I first laid my eyes on it, I couldn't have imagined it to be any better. Both what I expected and so much more in terms of construction quality and playability. If you are even slightly considering purchasing this guitar, then just do it. You will not regret it. Thomann's customer service is definitely amongst the best I have ever exerienced. The parcel tracking was helpful and accurate. Great respect to Thomann and their top notch service and proper care in protecting it during transit to my address. I eagerly await to see how it moulds to my playing style in the near future!

Looks great, feels great, and sounds great.

I've been contemplating to get an acoustic-electric from Epiphone for quite a while now and I just couldn't decide whether to buy a Hummingbird Pro or a Dove Pro since I have yet to physically test them out and I've only watched video reviews on Youtube. I wanted an affordable guitar that would sound great both plugged and unplugged so I decided to just buy them both and sell the one that I don't want. I settled for the Dove Pro namely because of two reasons: electronics and overall sound. This thing sounds great when it is plugged in! You can hear the steel-ness of the strings thanks to the Fishman pickup and when unplugged, it has that full, thick dreadnought tone compared to a thinner sound from the Hummingbird Pro. For the money, this guitar is worth every penny.

Epi Dove Pro..poor fret finish but good value..

Anoniem 03.09.2014

Arrived very well packed yesterday.
Early days yet to say how the Dove will sound in a band- but the overall build and sound excellent. Loud bright and full of tone.
Set up quite well- but lowered the bridge slightly. Neck pretty straight.
The biggest issue was the badly finished frets which I have now polished 3 times and they are a lot smoother now. They were not polished before packing and I don't know how the guitar passed quality control.
Fretboard was dry -but a couple of coats of lemon oil has helped address that.
Switched strings to my usual Martin custom lights and it's now ready to play.
Plastic bridge saddle a little cheap looking and a little loose-an obvious upgrade on the cards.
Electrics seem to work well and I personally like the simplicity of one tone/one volume.
Nice quality tuners.
A little closer to orangeburst rather than violinburst -but that will change/fade with time.
Once played in solid top should only improve.
So despite a few issues quite impressive value for money.
