Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For a left-handed SSS Stratocaster with expanded pickup routing, the American Ultra II pairs three Ultra II Noiseless Vintage Strat pickups with a five-way blade and S-1 switch. The S-1 control brings the neck pickup into positions 1 and 2. A quartersawn maple neck with a Modern D profile and Ultra satin finish meets a 10–14 inch compound-radius ebony fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets. The tapered heel and sculpted contours support access farther up the fingerboard; locking tuners and the two-point synchronized tremolo handle the hardware duties.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Left-handed guitarists using single-coil pickup voices across five-way blade selections.
- Lead work that benefits from a tapered heel and access to the upper frets.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Right-handed players; this model has left-handed orientation.
- Players seeking an HSS layout with a bridge humbucker.
