Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Finished in Black, this NXTa is the full-size fretted five-string electric violin in the range. Its maple body carries the Polar piezo pickup system, which takes string vibration directly to signal output and recognizes the distinct characteristics of Arco and Pizzicato playing. The action can be adjusted at the rock maple bridge. A patented tuning system at the bottom of the body is designed for accurate tuning changes, pitch stability, and easier string replacement. The ebony chin rest and adjustable Custom Shoulder Rest address positioning at the instrument.
