Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
PS52ce pairs a compact Grand Concert, 12-fret body with a 12-string layout and onboard acoustic-electric system. Its sinker redwood top, layered Honduran rosewood back and sides, and V-Class bracing form the acoustic design. For amplified work, the behind-the-saddle transducer uses adjustable sensors with the Expression System 2 preamp; bass, midrange, treble, and phase controls are available onboard. Ebony at the fingerboard and bridge, nickel hardware, and the included deluxe hardshell case complete the instrument.
