Description

The Epiphone Dove Studio left-handed acoustic-electric guitar brings one of Gibson’s most storied designs into the modern era—making its timeless tone and striking style more accessible than ever. Part of the Studio Acoustic Collection, it captures the brilliance and balance of the original Dove with a solid spruce top, layered maple body and 25.5" scale for crisp, powerful projection. A smooth Rounded C mahogany neck and bound rosewood fingerboard provide effortless playability, while onboard Fishman electronics make it stage- and studio-ready. Finished with iconic Dove appointments and multi-ply binding, the Dove Studio delivers vintage Gibson character, modern performance and exceptional value for players who want a true classic without compromise.

Solid Spruce Top and Layered Maple Body for Rich, Balanced Tone

The Dove Studio features a layered maple back and sides paired with a solid spruce top—a time-honored tonewood combination known for its sparkling highs, articulate midrange and dynamic projection. The solid spruce top enhances resonance and tonal depth, while the maple body brings focus and clarity to strummed chords and picked passages. Six-ply antique ivory and black top binding and four-ply back binding highlight the body’s elegant contours, capturing the visual sophistication that made the original Dove a stage icon. The result is a bold, balanced voice that commands attention across genres, from folk to country to rock.

Rounded C Mahogany Neck for Effortless Playability

The Dove Studio’s mahogany neck is carved in a comfortable Rounded C profile that invites hours of smooth, fatigue-free playing. Joined to the body with a glued-in dovetail joint, it ensures exceptional resonance transfer for a lively, responsive feel. The bound rosewood fingerboard offers a familiar warmth under the fingers, while 20 medium frets and the Dove’s classic split-parallelogram inlays deliver both comfort and vintage flair. Its 25.5" scale length provides ideal string tension for crisp articulation and dynamic expression—perfect for flatpicking, strumming and fingerstyle alike.

Fishman Electronics for True Acoustic Transparency

Equipped with Fishman’s S-Core undersaddle pickup and Presys VT preamp, the Dove Studio makes it easy to plug in without sacrificing its natural acoustic tone. The discreet soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls keep your stage setup clean and accessible, offering instant tonal shaping on the fly. Whether you’re recording, performing or practicing, the Fishman system delivers clear, balanced sound with the depth and detail players expect from a professional-grade acoustic-electric.

Iconic Appointments With Refined Vintage Style

From its ornate Dove pickguard to the pearloid dove inlays on the rosewood bridge, every detail of the Dove Studio reflects Gibson’s legacy of artistry and craftsmanship. Grover Rotomatic tuners ensure rock-solid tuning stability, while nickel hardware and multi-ply binding add an air of timeless sophistication. The ’60s Kalamazoo-style headstock, featuring a gold Epiphone logo and mother-of-pearl Gibson Crown inlay, proudly connects this modern classic to its storied roots. Every element has been thoughtfully executed to honor the original design while offering reliable performance for contemporary players.
