Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around Taylor’s Super Auditorium shape, the Catch Custom #16 C24e combines an all-solid ribbon mahogany body with Fanned V-Class bracing for a warm, focused response, sustained notes and clear pitch definition. The standard-carve neo-tropical mahogany neck and Honduran rosewood fingerboard give it a smooth playing surface, while the LR Baggs Element VTC system carries its acoustic character into amplified work. Soundhole volume and tone controls keep adjustments close at hand.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage or studio setups that need onboard volume and tone adjustment from the soundhole.
- Players alternating delicate fingerstyle passages with more assertive strumming.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; this model is specified as right handed.
