Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around Fender’s mid-sized Newporter body, this right-handed acoustic-electric balances an articulate, powerful voice with an electric-guitar-inspired slim C nato neck. Its solid spruce top, sapele back and sides, and scalloped X bracing shape the acoustic foundation, while the Fishman Flex system carries that natural guitar sound into an amplifier. A walnut fingerboard, 20 frets, 25.6-inch scale, and gloss Tidepool finish complete a distinctly Fender-styled six-string.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who want an acoustic-electric guitar with onboard Fishman Flex amplification for plugged-in use.
- Working through acoustic parts on a mid-sized Newporter body with a slim C-shaped nato neck.
