Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Finished in Ebony, this Les Paul Special Double-Cut combines a solid mahogany double-cutaway body with two P-90 soapbar pickups. The SlimTaper mahogany neck carries a bound rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets across a 24.75-inch scale. Its double-cut shape supports access to the upper frets, while dedicated volume and tone controls for both pickups give you direct control over each pickup’s contribution. A wraparound bridge rounds out the deliberately simple hardware arrangement.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players adjusting each P-90’s level and tone separately during a set.
- Lead and rhythm work that benefits from the double-cutaway’s access to upper frets.
- Right-handed players wanting a six-string solidbody finished in Ebony.
