Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Built around Fender’s 1957-era Stratocaster format, this right-handed six-string pairs an ash body with a one-piece maple V-profile neck and maple fingerboard. Three Pure Vintage ’57 single-coils feed a five-way selector, master volume, and two tone controls, giving you a clear, familiar control layout for moving between pickup settings. The synchronized tremolo, vintage-style tuners, single-ply pickguard, and Vintage Blonde gloss nitrocellulose finish keep the instrument focused on its period-specific design. A vintage-style tweed case is included.
