Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The J-200 Studio is a four-string acoustic-electric bass with a 30.5-inch short scale and Antique Natural finish. A solid Sitka spruce top sits with layered mahogany back and sides, while the mahogany neck carries a 20-fret Indian laurel fingerboard. For amplified work, the Fishman Sonicore under-saddle pickup and Fishman Sonitone preamp bring the instrument’s acoustic bass sound into a live-stage setup. Die-cast nickel tuning machines, a synthetic-bone nut, and moustache bass bridge round out the build.
