Rare Korn guitars

[ZXIIIT]

How ,noo, he had one.

Slanted 12th fret paw inlay and has "MUNKY" on the headstock, same as red paw.


Paw inlay is inline with the neck and has no "MUNKY" on the headstock.


Flamed maple stained blue/dark blue.

The blue paw one is so sick... The white hardware is so awesome I wish that was a regular thing on guitars.

It’s possible the inline one is one guitar but not sure. We’re dealing with crappy vhs rips so it could appear a flat bright blue. That’s why I was happy to find actual real photos from magazines on these things.

Also not convinced Head had a purple issues doll guitar. All evidence points to just the metallic gold one so far.

It could be, one has Munky's name on the headstock and the other doesn't, and 2 of the paw prints don't cross a fret.

Remember that the neck snapped on It once.
It was refinished + im sure they changed the whole neck with headstock. Its info from a guy who knows Munky personally and asked him about it.

The maple guitar had a broken neck?

But that makes sense since the paw inlay changed a bit.

It does raise more questions, though lol

The pic you posted of Head with the Issues doll inlay guitar is either the purple one or a different black one?

You know, I was thinking the same thing. But if you can imagine, it could be lighting. I envision it being a copper/gold metallic top but at different angles look dark or flat, or even color changing? I have no idea though

Same way my 1527 looks super purple in the light but then black on angles or a different room.

It is the purple one ( only 2 were made )
You can also see the purpleish color under light hitting the lackquer.

You think the LoPro was changed at some point since the live pic has a black bridge?

 

[tecs99]

valid observations for sure

Might be , lacs hated this guitar cause they were hard to make - and later to maintain lol

i remember somewhere korn saying that ibanez hated that they kept breaking guitars so many times, and that they can't just keep building them new ones

Exactly xD , +Munkys were very complicated. LACS is able to make 4 guitar's per artist ( yearly ), but it not applies to necks if they are in urgent.

They also broke a lot of them, not from playing, but from backstage antics and throwing them lol.

 

[tecs99]

the fact that those dudes didn't care about any of their stuff or their careers and still made it to be rock royatly is really......something

 

[Crungy]
