Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
With three Ultra II Noiseless Vintage Strat pickups and five-way selection, this American Ultra II Stratocaster stays within an SSS layout while offering extra combinations through its S-1 volume control. Activating S-1 brings the neck pickup into positions 1 and 2. The quartersawn maple Modern D neck has an Ultra satin urethane finish and a 10–14 inch compound-radius ebony fingerboard. Sculpted alder contours, rolled fingerboard edges, a tapered heel, and Luminlay dots support easy movement and low-light position visibility.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who want a noiseless three-single-coil setup with additional neck-pickup combinations.
- Stage work in low light, where Luminlay side dots aid position visibility.

Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players wanting a bridge humbucker; this model has an SSS pickup configuration.
