Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Midnight Sapphire G2622 is the larger center-block double-cut in this group, built around a 16-inch arched laminated maple body. Its chambered center block is designed to reduce feedback while adding sustain and resonance. A pair of Broad'Tron BT-3S humbuckers works with a three-way switch, separate neck and bridge volumes, master tone, and a push/pull coil split on the master volume. The fixed V-Stoptail and anchored Adjusto-Matic bridge complete the hardware setup. It has a soft C nato neck, 12-inch-radius laurel fingerboard, and 22 frets.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage or studio work where reduced feedback and pickup-control flexibility are useful.
- Players who want separate neck and bridge volume controls for balancing selected pickup sounds.
- Guitarists seeking a 16-inch double-cut body with fixed V-Stoptail hardware.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players seeking a compact Streamliner Center Block Jr. body.
- Players who need a case or gig bag included with the guitar.
