Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Part of the Colección de Galaxia, the LBQ1GXE Antares is a right-handed acoustic-electric bajo quinto with ten D’Addario J-85 phosphor bronze strings arranged in five courses. A solid spruce top with laser design joins laminated mahogany back and sides, while moon-phase inlays and a Sunfire rosette carry the celestial visual theme. Its active, bajo-voiced Fishman RareEarth soundhole pickup has its own volume control, giving you a direct adjustment point for stage or recording work. A hardshell case is included.
