Korn's original guitars?

ak33 · 05-03-2008, 03:55 PM

Does anyone know of any websites with detailed info and pics of Munky and Head's first 7-strings? Also does anyone know if they have been sold to anyone?

Thanks

I know Munky still has his original one (the green dot). It's been repaired a shit load of times (I think it was the neck thats been fixed).

I think their first ever 7-string was a UV77MC, and I know they had a PWH as well in the early days. The green dot came later, and then the silver dot, which was arguably their first signature model, since, even though it's technically a Steve Vai signature, it was designed with Korn fans in mind. I'm pretty sure they've never sold any of their guitars.

I could have swore when he picked up what he said was his first guitar it was the green dot. But shit, maybe I'm wrong. I did see it a long ass time ago though. It was black for sure though if that help (and it was an RG style body). So it wasn't the S.

it was a UV from a pawn shop both munky and head found them at a pawn shop, this was also not long after the 7 was made for Vai. (about 91 or 92) and their fist cd was in 94 so yeah I am sure it was a Universe model

I have gone to a few peoples places that work in the music industry in Huntington Beach that have a few of their original UVs. But they are all most likely not for sale.

They used a 1990 540S7 too...lovely guitar.

I'm not sure, but I think one of their guitars was given to Wes Borland and that was what he was using for Limp Bizkit's first album and you can see it in the video "Sour". I could be wayyy off... but I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere (an interview maybe?), it's a UV.

Lol i know that head's first guitar was a peavey mystic(later given to munky)with a small practice amp(again given to munky)

i thought on the "Who then now?" dvd Munky stated that he bought a new PWH from some guitar store, I could be wrong though, ill have to watch it again, but at any rate, their originals were UV's no doubt.
