My point on the original pictures was that the natural looked like a 1976. You say it's a 1958. Which matches what I said initially, the 1976 Explorers are 1958 reissues.
What year was the black one pictured? I don't think that it is a 1976 - they were natural.
Edge hasn't used a Korina Explorer as he probably feels he's hit the jackpot with his 1976 Limited Edition Explorer (and it's mahogany body). Why mess with perfection?
We could all pitch in and buy Edge a Korina 1958 reissue? Hahahaha...

I meant to say that the black explorer is a new current issue model (which is the same shape as the 76 reissues) it's not a 76 vintage Explorer.
Has anyone actually heard the tone of a custom shop korina explorer or flying v?
Really appreciated!
