“It reminds me of Batman and the Joker. It’s just so cool”: Korn’s Brian ‘Head’ Welch and James ‘Munky’ Schaffer on their Yin and Yang signature Ibanez 7-strings – and how it all comes back to Steve Vai

Few players have done more to popularise the Ibanez seven-string guitar than Brian ‘Head’ Welch and James ‘Munky’ Shaffer, and the Korn guitarists have unveiled an all-new collaboration with the Japanese brand with Yin and Yang-themed signature guitars.

Schaffer has the K7YIN, all in a smooth satin Matte Black finish, ebony fingerboard to match. Welch has the K7YANG, finished with a Matte White with natural back and sides and gold hardware.
