This gorgeous bass had nice features, but sonically, the passive configuration and the three-way pickup selector is the only feature I'd disliked from that instrument. A notable artist who used the Explorer bass through his successful carreer was the late John Entwistle, recently found dead at Las Vegas, due probably to a heart stroke. The "split" V-shaped headstocks was now featured on Dean guitars and basses. But I'm sure that Epiphone can also make an Explorer Bass with the unusual "split" V-shaped head! Although the Explorers were actually available with the "drooped" headstock, however, the first models featured the rare "split" head. The "drooped" headstock was actually featured on the superstrats since the early '80s, after Grover Jackson had the intention to include the typical Gibson design to his gorgeous guitars and basses. Among the particular features found to the Explorers, you will noticed that these guitars had the "drooped" pointy headstock, a classic headstock design popularized by other American guitar manufacturers, such as Grover Jackson, Paul Hamer, George Washburn, Gary Kramer, Carvin, Mike Stevens, Robin Guitars and Bernard Chávez Rico. Like most mid-priced electric basses, the Epi Korina Explorer is probably an excellent instrument to purchase, due effectively to the almost good construction and the fairly flawless quality.
It had a pair of two beefy humbuckers, a 22-fret set-neck with rosewood fingerboard and standard abalone inlays and gorgeous gold-plated hardware.
I own a black finished model that dates probably from 2001.
