Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Custom Shop 35 Style is a right-handed dreadnought acoustic guitar with an Adirondack spruce VTS top, Golden Era forward-shifted X bracing, and wild-grain East Indian rosewood back and sides. Its genuine-mahogany neck has a low-profile carve and satin finish, joined to the body with a dovetail joint. The ebony fingerboard carries 20 frets, while the 1.75-inch bone nut and Gotoh gold tuners complete the listed setup. Gloss body finishing and a hardshell case round out the instrument.
