  We compare the distortion effects of three popular final-state hadronization
schemes. We show how hadronization modifies the initial-state gluon
correlations in high energy p+A collisions. The three models considered are (1)
LPH: local parton-hadron duality, (2) CPR: collinear parton- hadron resonance
independent fragmentation, and (3) LUND: color string hadronization. The strong
initial-state azimuthal asymmetries are generated using the GLVB model for
non-abelian gluon bremsstrahlung, assuming a saturation scale Qsat = 2 GeV.
Long-range elliptic and triangular harmonics for the final hadron pairs are
compared based on the three hadronization schemes. Our analysis shows that the
process of hadronization causes major distortions of the partonic azimuthal
harmonics for transverse momenta at least up to pT = 3GeV. In particular, they
appear to be greatly reduced for pT < 1{\div}2GeV.
