The Korena take

Built for left-handed players, this Martin acoustic-electric combines an auditorium body with a gloss spruce top and gloss koa fine veneer back and sides. Fishman Matrix VT Enhance electronics, an undersaddle transducer, 2-band EQ, and a feedback filter make it equipped for plugged-in use as well as acoustic playing. The High Performance Neck taper is designed for easier movement along the fingerboard. A soft shell case is included for carrying the guitar.
