Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The JS12 is a six-string Dinky electric guitar with a poplar body, 25.5-inch scale, and a two-point fulcrum tremolo bridge. Its bolt-on one-piece maple speed neck is graphite reinforced, carrying a 12-inch-radius amaranth fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets. Two high-output ceramic-magnet humbuckers provide the pickup setup, with a three-way toggle selecting between them and master volume and tone controls shaping the result. The flat fingerboard radius is presented for chord work, rhythm playing, bends, and lead parts.
