Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Grand Pacific design gives the 217e Plus a warm, blended response for chord work, with rounder single notes and balanced bass across the range. A torrefied Sitka spruce top brings articulation and dynamic headroom, while layered Big Leaf Maple back and sides add projection and low-end warmth. The Fusion neck profile is made for a comfortable playing feel. Plug into the ES2 system for a clear amplified signal in stage or studio-monitor setups.
