Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Made for left-handed players seeking Martin’s 000 14-fret orchestra format with detailed appointments and a broad, responsive acoustic voice. Its solid spruce top and solid East Indian rosewood body pair with Golden Era-style scalloped Sitka spruce X-bracing for clarity, sustain and an open character. The genuine-mahogany GE modified low oval neck, High-Performance taper and beveled ebony fingerboard edges support smooth movement across chords and detailed passages. Natural gloss finish, abalone Style 45 trim and gold open-gear tuners give it a formal, traditional presentation.
