Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

For left-handed players who need a five-string format, the Ray5LH combines a Vintage Sunburst satin finish with a maple fingerboard, single low-noise ceramic humbucker, and 9V active preamp. The fixed bridge is described as fully adjustable and heavy duty. Its listed build includes a 34-inch scale, 22 frets, basswood body, and 1.77-inch nut width. The control and pickup layout stays direct: one humbucker and active electronics in a left-handed five-string bass.
