Epiphone 1958 Korina Explorer: Reach New Sonic Horizons

Epiphone captures the style and sound of the legendary Gibson ’58 Korina Explorer at a price anyone can enjoy! First released by Gibson in 1958, the original Korina Explorers proved far too futuristic for contemporary guitarists. As a result, less than 50 were ever built. With the Explorer eventually finding an audience in the ’70s and ’80s with guitarists playing heavier genres, the original models have become almost mythical, with exorbitant prices to match.

Inspired by those legendary 1958 models, Epiphone has created a Korina Explorer for everyone! Powered by a set of Gibson Burstbucker 2 and 3 pickups, the Explorer is the perfect instrument for your crushing riffs. Check out our exclusive video to learn more about this killer guitar.
