Epiphone 1958 Korina Flying V Electric Guitar Reviews
10 out of 10
"Great bang for the buck"
Feature:
Came with a cheap cable. the features are pretty basic. It is a copy of a guitar built in 1958.
Quality:
This guitar is very well made. I can always depend on it. I gig out with it at least once a week with many of those being "outdoor" gigs, which play hell on guitar.
Value:
this guitar sells at a very modest price. Look at the Gibson version then look at the epiphone version. you would probably save close to $11,500. No Joke
Desirability:
I have lusted after a guitar like this for 20 yrs. I just need Epiphone to make one I could afford
Sound:
The Only reason I give the sound an 8, is because when you roll the volume back to get a cleaner tone, it gets really muddy, almost like you were turning the tone knob down to 0. It also has some hum when both volumes are turn all the way down. When the pickups are turned up to 10, it has the kind of tone you would expect out of a v. Sustain for days
Ease of Use:
This guitar plays great! NO it does not play as well as the Gibson model, But the Gibson model is selling for 12000+ these days!
Support:
Never called them
Overall:
I love this guitar. I would replace it if it were ever stolen

Value:
great value. but you will need to do a little tweeking, at least i'm going to
Desirability:
all you have to do is look at it. i've wanted one for some time, and it was well worth the wait!
Sound:
i'm gonna get a new bridge p/u. way too much feedback! also, pots are really scratchy. easily replaceable
Ease of Use:
extreamly playable, really nice neck. needs better tuners. they say grover on them, but i've used grovers, and these don't match up
Support:
never needed it, yet
Overall:
i would definatly replace this if lost or stolen. as i've said, there are minor issues that are easily solvible. what i like most about it is, it's stunning to look at, and very playable.
