Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The black FA-135CE covers unplugged practice and amplified playing in one concert-body guitar. A single cutaway gives access above the lower register, and the Fishman Ion-T system supplies volume, bass, treble and phase controls along with an onboard tuner. Its thin C nato neck joins a 20-fret walnut fingerboard, while the laminate spruce top and layered basswood body make it a straightforward option for lessons, songwriting and routine rehearsal use.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Unplugged practice and lessons that may lead to amplified rehearsal or performance.
- Players using higher chord shapes or lead lines beyond the lower frets.
- Seated playing and songwriting with a more manageable concert body.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players seeking a guitar supplied with a case or gig bag.
