Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The natural-finish V9 combines a swamp ash body, solid maple top with quilted maple veneer, hard maple neck, and ebony fingerboard. Its J-J pickup system is paired with Heritage-3 three-band EQ, including mid-frequency control, and a mini toggle for active/passive operation. The control layout also provides master volume/tone, blend, treble, middle/mid-frequency, and bass controls. Rolled fingerboard edges are designed for a firmer, more natural grasp, giving this 34-inch-scale four-string a detailed set of adjustment options.
