Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
guild's m-40e standard is a right-handed concert acoustic-electric with a solid sitka spruce top, solid african mahogany back and sides, and lr baggs element vtc electronics. its c-profile mahogany neck and indian rosewood fingerboard provide the playing platform, while the concert body is presented for focused, intimate projection. onboard volume and tone controls keep amplified adjustment close at hand for an acoustic amp or direct pa connection. it suits recording, solo performance, strumming, and fingerstyle work described for this model.
Strong match
Who this is for
- solo performances or recording sessions where a concert-sized acoustic-electric is appropriate.
- fingerstyle passages and strummed accompaniment on the same acoustic guitar.
- amplified acoustic sets using the onboard lr baggs element vtc system.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- left-handed players, since the guitar is specified as right handed.
