Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built in Japan, the MJ San Dimas Style 1 HSS FR E combines a chambered alder solidbody with an oil-finished maple bolt-on neck and ebony compound-radius fingerboard. Its Seymour Duncan JB bridge humbucker and two Custom Flat Strat single-coils run through a five-way switch for the listed pickup combinations. With 24 jumbo frets, a sculpted heel, and a Gotoh double-locking tremolo, it is arranged for upper-fret lead work, chord parts, bends, and heavy tremolo use.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players moving between chord parts and fast lead lines across the 12–16 inch compound-radius fingerboard.
- Performance sets that use the double-locking tremolo heavily and need accurate return to pitch.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; this is a right-handed guitar.
