Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The left-handed D-35 Standard is a D-14 fret dreadnought with a solid spruce top and East Indian rosewood back and sides, including its distinctive three-piece back. Its forward-shifted, 1/4-inch non-scalloped Golden Era spruce X-bracing is described as producing resonant bass while keeping the midrange and treble articulate. The GE Modified Low Oval neck with High-Performance Taper and ebony fingerboard support both intricate fingerpicked material and fuller strumming. It is supplied with a molded hardshell case.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Left-handed players alternating between delicate fingerstyle arrangements and fuller dreadnought strumming.
- Solo or ensemble performances that benefit from resonant bass with articulate upper frequencies.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Right-handed players, since the guitar is built in a left-handed orientation.
