Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Built around a pair of Steelhead P90s, the Charger 290 gives players neck, bridge, and combined pickup options from a straightforward 3-way switch. The bass contour control adjusts the amount of low end sent to the amp, so you can move from a tighter attack to a fuller response without changing guitars. Its solid korina body, roasted maple bolt-on neck, 25.5-inch scale, and string-through-body bridge make this a focused solidbody setup for rhythm parts and lead work.
