Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Built in a right-handed A-style format, the KM-150 pairs a solid handcarved German spruce top with solid Alpine maple back and sides. Kentucky characterizes the result as rich and clear, suited to traditional and contemporary musical styles. Its slim Alpine-maple neck and rosewood fingerboard provide the specified playing surface, while open-geared tuners and an adjustable rosewood bridge are identified for accurate tuning and intonation. The snakehead peghead and dovetail neck-body joint reinforce its period-oriented design. A padded ProTour BV-2520 gig bag accompanies the instrument.
