Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Finished in Olive Metallic, the G5622 combines a chambered laminated maple double-cutaway body with a spruce center block and two Black Top Broad’Tron humbuckers. The neck pickup is described as smooth and rounded; the bridge has increased output for lead playing. Individual pickup volumes allow blending, while the master volume’s treble-bleed circuit keeps articulation present as it is lowered. Its double-cutaway shape also gives access across the upper frets.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Extended playing sessions where the chambered body construction is intended to reduce weight.
- Blending neck and bridge pickup output with dedicated volume controls for each pickup.
- Lead passages that use the double-cutaway body’s access to the highest frets.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who require a left-handed instrument; this model is right-handed.
