Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The OM-28 Standard pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid East Indian rosewood back and sides for the warm, resonant, articulate voice described here. Its GE-scalloped spruce X-bracing is intended to add sustain and an open, airy quality. The GE Modified Low Oval neck and High-Performance Taper are paired with a thinner ebony fingerboard, beveled comfort edges, and refined string spacing at the nut. It is an acoustic-only instrument, supplied with a molded hardshell case.
