Description

This is a 1983 Gibson Korina Explorer — part of the first reissue run after the original 1958 models and a few that shipped in the early ’60s. It features the original Tim Shaw humbuckers, delivering that classic vintage tone. The guitar is in excellent condition for its age, showing only light play wear and is 100% original, with no breaks, cracks, or repairs. It comes complete with the original hard-shell case

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
