The Korena take
Built around the C-1 Platinum Blackout, this right-handed six-string kit pairs an active EMG 81/85 humbucker setup with an ebony fingerboard, 24 extra-jumbo frets and a Thin C neck profile. The all-black presentation carries through the satin finish and polished hardware. For getting between home, rehearsal, recording and the stage, the package also supplies a Road Runner Avenue II gig bag, 10-foot Livewire Advantage instrument cable and D'Addario Equinox headstock tuner.
