Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Designed as a '70s-spec Les Paul Custom, this right-handed solidbody combines a mahogany body, three-piece maple top, and a maple neck with a volute. Calibrated T-Type humbuckers and handwired Orange Drop capacitors feed a familiar four-control layout, so pickup level and tone changes remain close at hand. The bound ebony fingerboard carries 22 medium-jumbo frets, while Grover Rotomatic tuners, a Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge, and aluminum stopbar complete the hardware set. A hardshell case is included for transport.
