Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The 000-17 is a 000-size, all-mahogany acoustic built around a solid mahogany top, back and sides and a 24.9-inch scale length. Sitka spruce GE-scalloped X bracing works alongside its acoustic construction, while the select-hardwood neck has a GE Modified Low Oval profile. The ebony fingerboard has a comfort bevel edge and abalone inlays. It is an acoustic-only instrument with no onboard electronics, and it includes a hardshell case.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Acoustic playing where a 000 body and all-mahogany construction are the desired format
- Players who want a 24.9-inch scale, GE Modified Low Oval neck and ebony fingerboard
- Transporting and storing the guitar in the included hardshell case
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players needing onboard electronics; this guitar has none.
