Epiphone Korina Explorer
Features We Love
-
Korina Body & Neck: Often called the "holy grail" of tonewoods, Korina (Limba) offers a mahogany-like warmth but with a more resonant, harmonically rich top end and a stunning natural grain.
-
'58 Explorer Styling: This model faithfully captures the vibe of one of the rarest guitars in history, featuring the iconic "hockey stick" headstock and expansive angular body.
-
Gold Hardware Aesthetic: The contrast of the gold hardware against the amber-hued Korina provides a high-end, classic look that perfectly complements the 1950s design.
-
SlimTaper "D" Profile: The neck is comfortable and fast, providing a more modern playing feel without sacrificing the sustain expected from a large-bodied Gibson-style instrument.

Please note the back of the neck has been lightly sanded to remove the shine. This is common on these guitars and removes the 'stickyness' on the neck when playing.
