DaveL Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Hi, so if you've been following UaD's thread on his korina explorer... I was inspired to give this a shot. I ordered the korina V, 58 style, ABR-1 posts, ebony board, ebony overlay on headstock... and it arrived this afternoon... impressions, looks pretty good, the 2 pcs of korina look relatively clean, didn't love the grain on the upper wing, but all in all looks good, fretwork and the ebody fretboard look nice. the warmoth string plates don't fit and aren't even close... not sure why the folks on the precision facebook page said this was an option. well, I assumed they would fit instead of actually measuring... oh well. at least I can use them as some sort Dwight Schrute ish throwing weapon. I have a few things ahead of this... however, I'm still thinking about what I want to do... one thought had been to nitro relic it... although I may go light blue sparkle... Ok, I should be getting dinner... Pics, enjoy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAMERMAN Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 That looks to have a high probability of coming out bad-ass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks great, Dave! Maybe you could use those top-mount grommets that are rounded, with the slot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockbody Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 That looks great! I missed the other thread, but I wish I had seen it before buying my last SG. I was just looking at my spraying material the other day when cleaning up in the basement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ua D Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Badass. Personally I like the grain on it. Still loving my explorer. Good on ya for getting the ebonyboard and overlay. Tone Valhalla Awaits! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmatthes Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 This looks really cool! Sounds like a great project that's priced like a Strat or Tele parts guitr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
