Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The SR1420B brings a four-string, right-handed format together with Nordstrand Big Break pickups, a 3-band EQ, and detailed onboard midrange control. Its push/pull EQ bypass changes the treble pot into a global passive tone control, while the three-way mid switch selects 250 Hz, 450 Hz, or 700 Hz. A five-piece panga panga and purpleheart neck, flamed maple fingerboard, African mahogany body, and flamed maple top define the build. Gotoh machine heads, an MR5S bridge, and a gig bag round out the package.
Strong match
