Korina McCarty to replace a Gibson R0 Les Paul...

[ej.]

Very nice. What year was the R0?

Very nice. What year was the R0?

Very nice indeed! She's on its way!, the R0 was a 2016, killer guitar just wasn't my thing anymore, I rather have a great sounding workhorse than an expensive museum piece, hehe.

 

[Caveman89]

SWEET!! You have chosen wisely!

Thanks!, I sure think I did, can't wait to get her on my hands and plug 'er in!

Nice. Although an R0 would be a great sounding workhorse for me lol

That is one sweet guitar. I hope you love it forever.

Very nice!! I've wanted a Korina McCarty in natural for a long time!

Well, she got here yesterday!, sorry for the late post, but since I work as a Professional Photographer I wasn't just gonna snap this one with the phone, she deserved better!, anyway, the guitar sounds amazing and surprisingly it is exactly what I wanted tone wise, she's gorgeous too!, here she is:

G'damn that's hotness! Very happy that it matched the tone in your head, you can never beat that!

Btw, if you want to come and photograph my guitars, you have a standing invitation

 

[DISTORT6]

Hell, even without the cash, you won that trade.
Congrats. Absolutely beautiful.

Aw... amazing. You really not helping my GAS

 

[eclecticsynergy]

Sweet! Very pretty indeed, and those are indeed highly sought after.
I have kind of a thing for korina guitars and own six, ranging from an '82 Moderne to an all-black-limba McNaught.
A trans red '07 korina/Braz in is one my favorite PRSs.

Extremely pretty piece o' wood. Enjoy!

OK, so now I'm really curious here--I see a fair amount of '07 all-korina McCarty's, almost all of which are labelled as "Brazilian rosewood fretboard." Well, my all-korina McCarty with an '07 date on the headstock was never indicated as such when I bought it--I didn't care, necessarily--nor does a MODCAT lookup identify it as Brazilian RW, nor is there "for USA only" written on the back of the headstock (which I think didn't start happening 'til after '07 anyway).

So my question is this--is the Brazilian RW on the 2007 all-korina McCarty's just a given/assumption (was automatically on all of them) or would there be something specifically indicating it?

 

[Gtrbldr]

I thought it was a limited run. Especially associated with the natural finish guitar as the one in this thread. My korina 07 is not part of that run, but a special order, and has a beautiful dark indian rosewood fretboard. However, no Brazilian RW

Amazing! If you’re in the US, I call dibs if you ever sell it.

You may be the only person who understands this, but don't you wish at times that modern digital cameras had a bit of tilt and swing to them?

 

[WEDGE]

I would hit that.

Outstanding! I love Korina....
