Custom Shop reissue of the original 1958 Korina Explorer - one of fewer than 100 ever shipped from the original run. Limba body provides a snappy, resonant voice that is woodier and more articulate than mahogany Explorers; PAF-style humbuckers preserve the vintage warmth players expect from a Burst-era Gibson.
