Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Metallic Blue Dinky JS12 brings the same right-handed, 25.5-inch-scale platform to a solid poplar body with a bolt-on, graphite-reinforced maple speed neck. Its 12-inch-radius amaranth fingerboard carries 24 jumbo frets and white dot inlays. That flat radius is described as helping with chords, rhythm playing, and lead bends. The electronics are direct: two passive high-output ceramic humbuckers, a three-way pickup selector, and master volume and tone controls. A two-point fulcrum tremolo bridge handles the tremolo/vibrato role.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Rhythm playing where easier chording on a flat-radius fingerboard is useful.
- Lead parts that call for bends and access to 24 jumbo frets.
- A two-humbucker guitar with three-way pickup selection and simple onboard controls.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players, as this model is right handed.
- Players expecting a case or gig bag to be supplied.
- Players requiring a coil split, kill switch, piezo pickup, or active EQ.
