Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Five strings broaden the RAY35’s range for varied tunings and playing approaches, while the active EQ provides bass, midrange, and treble adjustment. The roasted maple neck uses a 1.77-inch nut and 12-inch fingerboard radius, with the design described for fluid movement through wide intervals and detailed passages. Arm and chest contours shape the body, and its cutaway opens access higher on the fingerboard. In 3-Tone Sunburst, the spalted maple top gives each instrument an individual wood pattern.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Five-string arrangements that call for extended range, varied tunings, and different playing techniques.
