Bengal Burst finish
The Bengal Burst is, for our money, the most visually-striking of the two finishes.

Check out these images of the Korina Flame from US guitar-makers Suhr. The new model takes it's name from the beautiful flame maple that caps the body and, as is often the case with Suhr products, it's being produced in an extremely limited run of just 70 instruments. Click through the gallery for a closer look.

Chili Pepper Red finish
Suhr says that the chambered bodies not only reduce weight, but add "sweetness to the highs, and warmth to the lows".

Flame maple top
The flame maple top is one of the thinnest we've seen - just 3/16 of an inch. Suhr hasn't stopped there though, the finish and wood selection on the model featured here makes the korina body look great too.
