The Coronado is a reproduction of the two-pickup, wide-body Supro electric guitar that was first manufactured in the early 1960s. The Coronado reissue mates a chambered mahogany back with a newly-developed, composite ÒAcousti-glassÓ top. This updated construction preserves the instrumentÕs signature aesthetics and timeless sound while improving its semi-hollow acoustic resonance and tuning stability. The CoronadoÕs vintage-correct tuners, Art Deco stairstep tailpiece and adjustable rosewood bridge are joined by a faithful replica of the legendary Vistatone pickup to bring you a fully realized and worthy reissue of this classic Supro guitar. The Vistatone pickups found in the Supro Coronado are a reproduction of the groundbreaking, single coil design developed for Valco by Ralph Keller in the early 1950s. The Vistatone pickup is cited as prior art in Seth LoverÕs PAF patent and is found in many of the most desirable vintage Supro models. The Supro Coronado has a powerful, electric swamp-blues tone that is anything but subtle. ItÕs a gnarly sounding instrument that loves tube amps and fuzz pedals of all kinds. The neck pickup sounds huge and wooly while the bridge pickup has an unmistakable midrange growl that is downright dirty. Our semi-hollow recipe of an Acousti-glass top and mahogany body retains the unique sonic characteristics of the original res-o-glass models while providing todayÕs musicians with a lightweight, highly playable instrument that is easy to maintain and stays in tune. The Coronado guitar and its relatives in the Americana Series of Supro electric guitars were designed by Trevor Wilkinson and David Koltai to capture the spirit and sound of the Art Deco-influenced, historic line of Supro instruments. ¥ Vintage Supro body design ¥ Jet Black finish ¥ Redesigned two-bolt neck joint ¥ Vintage-correct Vistatone pickups ¥ Volume and tone control for each pickup ¥ Rosewood bridge ¥ Art Deco stairstep tailpiece ¥ Acousti-glass top ¥ Semi-hollow mahogany back ¥ Mahogany neck with dot inlays ¥ 24 _Ó scale
