Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A rock-focused 5150 Deluxe with an HH Wolfgang Alnico 2 setup, a Floyd Rose locking tremolo and D-Tuna, plus a poplar burl-topped Aqua Burst finish.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players seeking punch, articulation, thick rhythms, overdrive, sustain and cleans from an HH pickup configuration
- Players who want Floyd Rose tremolo work and quick switching between standard and drop-D tuning
- Players who value a compound-radius ebony fingerboard and graphite-reinforced bolt-on maple neck
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who do not want a locking tremolo bridge or locking nut
- Players who need a case included with the guitar
- Left-handed players
