Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The GD71CE is a dreadnought cutaway acoustic-electric finished in gloss sunburst. Its solid spruce top is matched with black walnut back and sides, a pairing described as rich and detailed. A slim mahogany neck and 12-inch-radius laurel fingerboard shape the playing surface. The TK-40D preamp makes the guitar ready for amplified use, keeping a built-in tuner, gain, three-band EQ, mid-contour, notch-filter, and EQ-bypass controls onboard. Maple binding and dot inlays add to its appointed look.
