Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Built around the 1963 Telecaster format, this right-handed American Vintage II model combines an alder body with two Pure Vintage '63 Telecaster single-coils. The three-way blade switch puts the neck, bridge, or combined pickup setting within reach, while master volume and tone controls keep operation straightforward. Its maple C-shaped neck, rosewood fingerboard, 7.25-inch radius, and 21 vintage-tall frets give the instrument a deliberately vintage-focused playing layout. A vintage-style brown case is supplied.
