Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for five-string players, the SBXQ V pairs a 35-inch scale with dual passive medium-output humbuckers and a coil-splitting toggle. Its control layout combines master volume, blend, and 3-band EQ, giving the player several points of adjustment from the instrument. The poplar body is topped with maple, and the HiMass hardtail bridge is described as improving note attack and sustain. It arrives in Transparent Black Burst with a matching 3x2 headstock and black hardware.
