Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For left-handed players after a traditional dreadnought format, the D-28 Standard combines a solid spruce top with East Indian rosewood back and sides. GE-scalloped, forward-shifted X bracing and Golden Era top bracing shape its detailed acoustic voice, with articulate bass, crisp treble, and sustain described in the design. The GE Modified Low Oval neck, High Performance Taper, beveled fingerboard edge, and 20 Plek'd frets focus on playing comfort and even fretwork. It is an acoustic-only instrument and comes with a molded hardshell case.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Left-handed studio and live acoustic playing where a dreadnought's powerful, resonant voice suits the arrangement.
- Fingerpicking or strumming across styles that benefit from articulate bass and crisp treble.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who need onboard electronics, as this guitar lists no electronics.
