Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Finished in Vintage Tobacco Sunburst, this limited Les Paul Standard '50s Double Trouble brings together a solid, non-weight-relieved mahogany body and AA figured maple top beneath gloss nitrocellulose lacquer. The rounded '50s Vintage mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, 12-inch radius, and 22 medium-jumbo frets form its core playing platform. A Burstbucker 1 at the neck and Burstbucker 2 at the bridge provide the two humbucker voices, and their individual volume and tone controls are handwired with Orange Drop capacitors. An ABR-1 bridge, aluminum stopbar, and hardshell case round out the package.
