Fame Koa Standard Satin Top
With the Fame Koa Standard, Fame presents an acoustic guitar in Grand-Auditorium construction completely made of koa wood. The Hawaiian acacia wood known from ukulele making not only impresses with its impressive grain but also with an amazingly warm and open sound. For additional playability the Fame Koa Standard was equipped with a comfortable armrest for the playing arm, while the wide
With its basic construction of koa wood and a solid Koa-top, the Koa Standard appeals to a variety of different playing styles. The tropical hardwood is known for its focused and open tone with amazing projection, providing a fitting tonal foundation for fans of fingerstyle in particular. For maximum playability the GA design features an armrest emerging from the abalone and padauk crafted Binding to ensure a comfortable rest for the right arm at all times, even on longer sessions.
If you want to amplify the Fame Koa Standard on stage or simply record without hassle, you can confidently rely on the integrated Fishman Sonitone pickup. The pickup system of the market leader skillfully translates the sound character of the instrument and can be used with a variety of devices such as mixers, amplifiers and even effects units. Here the control panel of the system was discreetly hidden in the soundhole, avoiding additional cuts in the frame of the Koa Standard.
Fame Koa StandardI wanted to try a Koa acoustic, and since I already have a Fame Mahogany Jumbo, I opted for this one. I didnt really like all the flowery stuff on the fingerboard of the "deluxe" model, and this one seemed more than right for the money. The solid Koa top rings with lots of sustain and beautiful harmonics. And it's just enamoring to look at! The arm rest (made of beautiful paddouck) is also a fantastic and beautiful feature. This guitar is great for fingerstyle and alternate tunings, if you're like me. The neck is not cumbersome, but it is a pronounced "C", beware. The action came greatly set up. Now some of the cons: the entire guitar is a beautiful high gloss, EXCEPT the middle part of the neck. Quite strange - look and feel - and I got no explanation from no sales rep (they were not aware of this). I used some detailer to even out on both ends. Also, the wood cover on the headstock covers NOTHING. It's just screwed on there. There is no hole behind it even! No 2way truss rod like some electrics. Very strange. The truss rod is reachable thru the sound hole. Besides these two small manufacturing flaws (I have pics for anyone interested), the guitar brings installed a Fishman (like many Fames), and is definetely a keeper. They did send me (free of charge) a simple humidifier, but not enought IMO to explain those two odd things.
