    Over the years of playing, I've picked up a few Gibsons and Epiphones. This one, though, has always been at the top of my wishlist as a lefty growing up. Right now, my guitar tech is swapping out the Burstbuckers for a hot rodded Seymour Duncan JB4/SH2 set, I just prefer alnico V pups. Highly recommend Side note: neck is FAT at the 12th fret

    As soon as I played my new 1958 Korina Flying V Outfit Left Handed Electric Guitar all other guitars become obsolete except my 1958 Korina Explorer! I sold all my other guitars. Tone, sustain, perfect light weight, incredible neck, low action, zero fret buzz, better playability than an other guitar made, float to the neck like never before on both the Flying V and Explorer. This guitar is flawless, once you try it you will buy it.
