Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The Vintage Tint FGC-TA is a right-handed dreadnought cutaway acoustic-electric with reverb and chorus created from within its body. Its onboard controls let you set those effects to taste without relying on an amplifier or extra effects equipment. For amplified work, the guitar carries a System 70 preamp and SRT Piezo pickup for connection to an amplifier or PA. The solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides deliver the model’s bold, resonant tone, while the cutaway, fast-action neck, and rosewood fretboard support access and playability.
