Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Designed as a Hellraiser/SLS hybrid, this 8-string pairs a mahogany body and sculpted quilted-maple top with an enlarged upper cutaway. EMG 57/66 active humbuckers supply its pickup setup, while the thin satin neck and compound-radius ebony fingerboard keep the playing area direct and uncluttered. Locking tuners, a GraphTech Tusq nut, and a USA-made Hipshot non-trem bridge round out a fixed-bridge design aimed at progressive playing styles. Glow side dots help with stage visibility in low light.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Progressive-style playing that calls for an 8-string guitar and a USA-made non-trem bridge.
- Low-light live sets where glow-in-the-dark side dots make the fingerboard edge easier to locate.
