NEW! 2026 Giordano Tributo Korina in “crusty” aged natural — a MEISTER EDE custom order in the finest korina.
We're an official dealer for the superb masterbuilt instruments from Giordano Guitars, handmade in Italy. MEISTER EDE bought his first Giordano in 2023 and has been taken with the craftsmanship of this rising builder ever since. In 2024 we agreed terms and specified the first examples for Meister Ede Guitars, and now the first guitar built for us as a dealer is finished.
Nicholas Giordano builds these on his own, and it isn't only his know-how in guitar building and vintage detail that goes into them — he's a very good player himself, which means his instruments hold up on sound and feel, and work properly for the hard-working musician out on tour.
So here it is: the 2026 Giordano Custom Guitars Tributo Korina in a natural “crusty” aged finish. It's a design you don't get tired of looking at, and every angle turns up something new. The ageing stands out immediately — you rarely see work this authentic and this charming. The natural colour suits the lovely grain of the selected korina perfectly.
If you can drag your eyes off the looks and onto the tone, what strikes you first is how much push and character this 3.95 kg korina lightweight has. The korina accounts for most of that, but don't overlook the beautiful dark rosewood board. The neck has a perfect medium C running into a D and plays like butter, with jumbo frets that are faultlessly dressed.
To get all that resonance to the amp, Nicholas works closely with Sunbear on the pickups. The response is immediate, with the midrange push and character korina is known for. Clean or driven, it's an inspiring instrument in every respect, and the Sunbear '58s are a perfect match for it.
The fretwork and setup make it a genuine pleasure to play. Masterbuilt work at its best. Consider what a guitar like this would cost from one of the big names and this counts as a bargain. It's worth every penny. New, VAT shown separately.
