View Full DescriptionRefined tones from Gibson pickups
Revive those classic PAF tones with the Epiphone Korina Flying V, equipped with Gibson BurstBucker pickups. These pickups offer sonics full of character and detail, accurate to the highly sought-after originals, thanks to Gibson's loving recreation of those 1950s tones.
The neck BurstBucker 2 delivers a thick, bassy, and punchy tone with a smooth edge, perfect for rhythm sections or soulful solos. If you're seeking more presence in the mix or need extra bite in your riffs, the hotter BurstBucker 3 at the bridge provides extra snarl and roar without compromising the vintage character, perfectly complementing the '58 Flying V vibe.
Premium electronics
The outstanding Gibson quality pickups are complemented by premium wiring, allowing you to sculpt your sound on the fly. With CTS pots, a Mallory capacitor, and a Switchcraft 3-way pickup switch, expect smooth and responsive control action with pronounced differences between each tone and volume setting.
All-korina accuracy
This limited-edition recreation of the '58 Flying V features a korina body and neck for correct weight, feel, and appearance. The neck, fashioned into an authentic 1958 Flying V profile, affords riffing action that closely matches that of a genuine '58 V. It’s sleek, vintage, and unforgettably fast!
Flying V hardware
From the brass V string plate to the accurately shaped headstock, this special edition looks the part. The premium hardware ensures reliable and dependable performance. An ABR-1 TOM bridge ensures accurate intonation across the scales, working in tandem with the string plate and deluxe machine heads for rock-solid tuning stability.
