Perfectly in tune, right on down to D and C tunings: our 2018 Klein & Kaufman 396, and yes, it comes in multiscale. 26.25” on the bass on down to 25.125” on the trebles, the spread is a pinch over an inch and makes for easy playability and reliable string tension and intonation in altered tunings. Sitka Spruce top, Flamed Koa back and sides, Maple bindings and gold EVO frets for longevity. This Klein is built for the long haul.
There’s excellent string definition, especially between the A and D strings, that helps render notes in crisp detail. There’s clarity to the treble overtones, and a lively response across the board. There’s a lot, frankly, going on. We love how easily this one plays, and at only 4lbs 1oz, this Klein 396 is featherlight in your hands. Try this one on for size, and we promise it’ll fit snug as a glove, if gloves came in such gorgeous colors as this Flamed Koa and Sitka Spruce.
