Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Built around a 1965 C maple neck and round-laminated rosewood fingerboard, this right-handed Strat brings a period-focused layout to a working rig. Three Pure Vintage ’65 Gray-Bottom single-coils feed a five-position blade switch, with separate tone controls for the neck and bridge/middle pickup groups. The six-saddle American Vintage synchronized tremolo adds pitch expression. Candy Apple Red gloss lacquer and an Updated Deluxe Vintage black hardshell case complete the package.
