Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The four-string MDM1600 pairs an alder body and poplar burl top with a roasted maple Thin C neck and rosewood fingerboard. Its Delta S4J single-coil pickups are paired with the Sonitech S preamp: master volume/balancer, master tone, three-band EQ, EQ bypass, a three-way mid switch, and the rear-mounted Hexa mid system. The MR5S mono-rail bridge uses 19 mm string spacing, while luminescent side dots and a detachable finger ramp address navigation and fingerstyle support. A gig bag is supplied.
