HengistPod Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 (edited) In case this hasn't already been mentioned ... new Epi Explorer bass in "antique varnish" Korina. [url="http://www.epiphone.com/News/Features/Features/2016/Limited-Edition-Korina-Instruments.aspx?platform=hootsuite"]http://www.epiphone.com/News/Features/Features/2016/Limited-Edition-Korina-Instruments.aspx?platform=hootsuite[/url] Only price I can see so far is £469 from GAK. Hundred quid less and I've had thought about it. Edited November 3, 2016 by HengistPod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 (edited) I've always had a secret hankering for something spikey like this, even though my metal days are long behind me. This one looks a bit classier than the standard black-on-black-with-black-binding & black skull and crossbones motif efforts you usually see. If I didn't have my eye on something a bit more practical I'd be sorely tempted. Edited November 3, 2016 by Cato Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lw. Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 I'd give that a play. I'd look ridiculous but I'd give it a go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twincam Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Looks cool, I like the look of all the range. The bass would look awesome if it had gold knobs and gold pu covers too imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass_Guardian Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 That's awesome! My mates got the guitar version in Korina. Could maybe be a (poor) equivalent of ZZ Top. B-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoirBass Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Oddly, I quite like the look of the Explorer too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Generally I hate pointy gtrs/basses, but I've always really liked the Explorer shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlungerModerno Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Wow. I saw the shape, and I felt something. Then I saw the sensible bridge and I want it I want it I want it I want it I want it I want it I want it I want it I want it I want it......

Fisheth Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Any word of a release date? I want one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbiscuits Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 I love Explorer shape for guitars, but on basses the proportions all look wrong. All the beauty in the guitar version doesn't seem to translate to bass for me. Hmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skybone Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Looks excellent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
