It's part two of the Epiphone Flying V shenanigans this week as we put our purchases side by side on the bench and run through all the specs to try and work out what makes the Korina version twice as expensive. We can only go so far though... or can we?? 😉🎸

I paid $599 for my Korina Flying V, it is the version prior to the newest release that did not have the Gibson pickups and sans case, I did purchase a case for it($139), but it is not the square type, almost exactly like the black case you have, but mine has gold hardware/latches I played it last night and it needs a small truss rod adjustment. Confessions of a guitar addict. I love my Korina V, it is so light and resonant, almost acoustic-like in how it projects.

Hi Colin, During last week’s unboxing of the two flying V’s, it became clear to me, that the black shaped epiphone hard case you purchased, provided much better protection for the guitar as it ensured that the guitar remained held, static inside the case, even if the case was delivered inside a larger oblong cardboard box, and the parcel was stored in transit, upside down! The brown pink lined case unfortunately did not offer the same protection for the guitar inside, especially if, somewhere along the way, in transit, the package was stored upside down, or dropped on it’s head,the Flying V, iwould slide down within the case, and without the benefit of a volute where the neck reaches the headstock, the neck joint just snapped under the weight of the package. You’re a braver man than me, for taking on such a repair, Great informative and down to earth videos, kind regards Greg, an avid watcher!

After giving it a couple of hrs of love on the set up and frets and a month of plaing it, i have to say im growing attached to it. It sounds and plays like butter. If you need an explorer, id say it fits the bill. Cheers from Canada.. Jeff

Just to add to what a few people have already mentioned, I’ve got a Lemon Burst Epiphone 59 which has Wilkinson tuners. Your deep-dive review of the Epiphone 59 played a big part in the decision to splash out on what is probably a nicer guitar than I can really justify for my playing ability, but I absolutely love it. Good luck with the neck repair!

Will be watching the bonus content on the TV channel later to see how the headstock operation turns out. There's a lot to be said for taking the discount and fixing the problem yourself, not least because you're more likely to bond (groan!!!) with the Korina. At the end of the process, I'm betting there won't be a great deal of difference sound wise between the Korina and the Standard; certainly not something that can't be sorted with the money saved on the 'affordable' version. However, will be happy to be proved wrong as, either way, it will be very interesting. Cheers

On the tuner question, I just bought a new Epi SG Classic and it came with Epiphone Classic tuners. Bravo to you for deciding to fix the korina V! Please don't use that thin CA glue to fix the headstock break! Use the Titebond, clamp it and wait 24 to 48 hours for it to set up. The CA glue would be useful to drop fill any finish flaws after you glue the neck back together. The black V sounded really good to me, I have a couple of guitars I've put ProBucker 2 and 3 pickups in and they sound great! Cheers brother!

They are now 10 thousand on Reverb ,,, I paid $979.00 from Guitar Trader New Jersey ,D series 2 piece body ,It is gone and until 2 years ago I finally saw Epiphone version from Quindou Factory .In 1999 the very 1st ones with Korina body and mahogany neck really felt raw to me compared to my Gibson. Well this 2016 -2019 has Epiphone logo on the back of neck ,are Awesome out of the box ,,mine I paid $973.00 being from Japan had been set up with Diadarrio 10- 46 s and a blue gig bag [Japan uses gig bag for everything] , Then I got the olive drab which is exactly like your ebony one, by the way it sounded great. remember the Joe Bonamassa Korina v it came with exact logo raised and the probuckers 2 and 3 .. I cant wait to see how it comes out according to Michael .Schenker they get stronger after gluing correctly. Rock On Mate ,NWOBHM thanks

Good luck on the fix. I've never done one myself and that looks very unstable I agreed with you putting the capo on. My advice. I'd try to get some splines in after gluing it to help the solidity of it. Given it is deep and long down under the fretboard that would i feel give me the confidence. I'd probably take it to Dave the luthier I use when I exceed my skill level.

I don't know if that was a cover or just jamming for the playout, but that was awesome.

It's a great idea to repair it, I hope the discount was substantial- you are definitely doing them a favour. I bought my 2003 sg standard second hand with a neck repair and it was a bargain. once it's repaired you will have to get some scratches and dings on it so the repair doesn't look out of place. the 91 Gibson you have is really lovely though- i think you should add that to the comparison

This is a great episode, Colin! I like the V aesthetics very much, although haven't played one yet. Probably have to do something about it 😉 The Korina one really looks lovely because of the beautiful wood grain, but I'm really curious if it sounds significantly different. Reminds me of Joe Bonamassa's Amos I've seen played last week live. Do you think they are similar with his signature Epi V they don't make anymore? Looking forward to next week and good luck repairing that neck, you're a brave man! 🤞
