Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Designed in a left-handed Grand Concert format, the Academy 12e combines a solid spruce top with a maple neck, ebony fingerboard, and ebony bridge. The 24.875-inch scale and 1.687-inch nut width are paired with a satin-finished neck for an accessible fretting feel. Its ES-B behind-the-saddle transducer offers adjustable sensors, a tuner, and 3-band EQ for amplified use. The included gig bag gives the guitar a practical starting point for carrying it between lessons, rehearsals, or performances.
