Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Finished in 3-Color Sunburst, this American Professional Classic Hotshot Telecaster uses an SSS pickup design rather than a conventional two-pickup Tele layout. Coastline '63 Telecaster single-coils handle the neck and bridge positions; a Coastline '57 RWRP Stratocaster single-coil fills the middle position. Five-way blade switching puts the pickup options within easy reach, with master volume and Greasebucket tone controls for adjustment. The alder body, maple neck and maple fingerboard are paired with 22 medium-jumbo frets and a three-saddle string-through-body Tele bridge.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who want a three-single-coil Telecaster with five-way blade switching.
- Switching pickup settings between song sections during rehearsals, recording, or live sets.
- Players seeking the 3-Color Sunburst version with a maple fingerboard.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who need a rosewood fingerboard.
- Players looking for a standard two-pickup Telecaster configuration.
