Epiphone 1958 Korina Explorer White Pickguard LH Left-Handed Electric Guitar with Case
Product no: 9000-0097-7718 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

The Limited Edition Epiphone 1958 Korina Explorer has been built with the help of the Gibson Custom Shop to bring things all the way back to one of the golden aged of Gibson. A touch more affordable than the original icon, this faithful reincarnation features the same solid korina body and neck which have both been treated to an Aged Natural finish before being decked out with gold-plated hardware to complete a timeless, irresistible look. This six-string classic comes pre-wrapped in a hard case. This is the left-handed edition.

The Epiphone 1958 Korina Explorer: Gibson-Grade Sound

Korina wood isn't just sought after for its look but for its tonal quality, and here, it comes teamed up with a set of Gibson Burstbucker pickups to guarantee thick and chunky, rock-worthy output and pure and unadulterated Gibson-grade sound. The electronics are just as on point: from the Switchcraft selector switch to the CTS potentiometers and Mallory capacitor. Add everything up and you have an ultra-tight and reliable treat of an axe.
