Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for players who want one guitar for unplugged practice and amplified use, the FA-135CE pairs a concert-size body with a cutaway for access higher on the fingerboard. Its Fishman Ion-T electronics provide onboard volume, bass, treble and phase adjustment, with a tuner ready for quick checks before playing. The thin C nato neck, 20-fret walnut fingerboard and laminate spruce/basswood construction keep the focus on regular lessons, songwriting and rehearsal-ready convenience.
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
