Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

This roasted-pine American Professional II Stratocaster uses an HSS pickup layout: V-Mod II single-coils at the neck and middle, plus a Shawbucker at the bridge. A push-push tone knob engages coil-splitting for the bridge humbucker, giving it a single-coil setting. The guitar also combines a satin maple neck, rolled-edge rosewood fingerboard, sculpted heel, and narrow-tall frets with a two-point tremolo carrying a cold-rolled steel block. A hardshell case is included for transport.
