Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Built around a multi-scale neck, this five-string SRMS805 is aimed at players who want consistent open-string response, accurate intonation, and a more focused Low-B. Its mahogany body and Bartolini BH2 dual-coils bring a balanced, warm response with a tighter low end and fuller mids. The MR5S bridge lets you alter string spacing at each saddle, while the neck-pocket truss adjustment allows neck fine-tuning without loosening the strings. Active EQ can be bypassed when a passive tone control is preferred.
