Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Miami Blue gives this HSS American Professional II Stratocaster a distinct finish over an alder solidbody. V-Mod II single-coils handle the neck and middle positions, while the DoubleTap bridge humbucker supplies the higher-output option. Use the push/pull tone control to split that humbucker into a brighter, lower-output single-coil mode. A treble-bleed circuit preserves high-end detail as the volume is reduced. The satin urethane C maple neck, rolled-edge rosewood fingerboard, sculpted heel, and 22 narrow-tall frets are paired with a 2-point synchronized tremolo featuring a cold-rolled steel block.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Studio parts that need V-Mod II single-coil passages and a higher-output bridge voice.
- Live arrangements where the push/pull control changes the bridge humbucker to single-coil mode.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; this guitar is configured for right-handed use.
- Players who require more than 22 frets.
