The Korena take

Built around the 1963 Les Paul SG Custom design, this Epiphone pairs a slim, beveled mahogany body with a glued-in SlimTaper mahogany neck and long tenon. Two Custombucker humbuckers cover the guitar’s warm, rich voice: the neck pickup is voiced with more midrange for smooth lead work, while the bridge brings tighter lows and bite to rhythm parts. Individual volume and tone controls, an ABR-1 bridge, and Maestro Vibrola complete the working layout. A hardshell case is included.
