Artist Korina HB vs Arist Mahogany HB


Recommended Posts

Anyone ever A/B'd these 2 guitars? Any opinions? Korina probably lighter and brighter?

I have the Artist Korina P90 and I really like how light it is. I'm thinking of getting an artist with HB to use instead of my studio. I typically use the studio to get the "heavier" HB sound. That's old skool heavy not really hi gain stuff. So I'm thinking of Artist Korina HB, but this guitar doesn't seem to come up in the used market in my price range. So looking I'm into the artist mahogany HB.

I suppose the other option is to put a P90 sized humbucker on my Artist Korina P90. Is there Seth sounding P90 sized HB?

I don't have any Korina guitars so I can't compare. However I do have an Artist Mahogany with Humbuckers. It is a great classic rock guitar. I ended up selling my Studio because the Artist covered most of the same ground IMHO of course. I paid $650 for my Artist a couple of years ago. I really really like it. It is my only Humbucker guitar besides my Newport with TV'Jones TV'Trons.

The reason why the Artist Korina HB doesn't come up in the used market very often is because they are so bad ass. I will never get rid of mine. Having said that, I may someday get an Artist Mahogany to pair with it. I think that might be kind of nice.

Hey Scarp,

The pup looks like it will require that I put holes on the guitar to mount the pup ring. Is that right? Not sure if I'd like the idea of putting additional holes on the guitar.

Thanks,

Just minor in cavity alt. Original pups back in - no visual change. Call BCRGreg. Ask him.
