The Core-OC SP is a surprisingly well-built instrument, offering a lot of value for the money. The solid wood construction gives it a richer tone than many guitars in its class, and the Fishman electronics are a significant bonus for performing. It's a great choice for intermediate players or anyone wanting a smaller-bodied acoustic with a balanced sound and amplified versatility.

Frequently Asked Questions

It’s remarkably natural, preserving the guitar's acoustic character while providing enough gain for stage use – not overly bright or artificial.
The neck is a comfortable 'C' shape, standard for most players, but the 43mm nut width might feel a touch narrow for those accustomed to wider necks.
The finish allows the wood to breathe, but it also means it’s more susceptible to humidity and sweat; regular cleaning and occasional wiping with a damp cloth is recommended.
