(they also offered a solid color version, but i'm not talking about that one.) around 2023, they also reissued what appears to be the same instrument I'll assume that due to 23 years time frame that the pickups. There has been speculation that the epiphone korinas have cheap wood of a different type under the veneer In my case, i have a flying v epiphone Looking at the sides and under the pickup cavities of my v, i can say it's definitely korina but is in pieces, glued together They just look so good, the.
So, fellow members, is there such a thing Korina v, with rosewood board (or ebony), proper aesthetic without gibson branding and price tag So basically, epiphone with rosewood board Is there such a thing? I own a 50th anniversary korina historic explorer and a mahogany usa explorer in natural Compared to each other acoustically, the korina model is much brighter and nasal.
It's probably just tradition that it's associated with setnecks because it was gibson that first popularized korina, and it's closer to the mahogany end of the spectrum than it is to alder or ash. Korina is the name that gibson invented for the honey colored finish they applied to the original explorers and destroyers in the '50s With that said, go with korina. I love the looks of korina les pauls, have never played one, they are pretty rare, can anyone chime in on how they sound compared to regular mahogany les pauls? The only epiphone i'd consider at those prices would be, say, a korina explorer but again used prices would still be less or equal and likely mik which some people may prefer? Ive got a hamer korina jr single p90
Bought it here from fellow member willhutch in 2008 I dont have any other korina guitar and not really familiar with what korina contributes to the tone of a guitar My hamer sounds loud aggresive and dynamic with lots of high end and mid high
