Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around a 34-inch, five-string layout, the GV5 Gloxy Val MP adds a low-string range while keeping the neck profile focused on comfort and playability. Its maple neck and fingerboard pair with a basswood body, finished in Tobacco Burst. The onboard Markbass JJ-style MB Instrument PRE offers active-passive operation and EQ boost or cut; the active/passive change is designed to keep volume shifts nearly unnoticeable. A gig bag is supplied for transport.
