Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Kentucky’s right-handed KM-650 pairs an F-style body with a solid German spruce carved top and solid Alpine maple back and sides. The wood combination is voiced for clean note definition with added punch, while the one-piece Alpine maple neck and radiused Santos rosewood fingerboard shape the playing surface. An adjustable rosewood bridge, open-gear tuners, and D’Addario EJ-74 strings complete the instrument. Its high-gloss tobacco sunburst finish gives it a traditional visual direction, and a padded ProTour gig bag is included.
