Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built as a right-handed, six-string Custom Shop Stratocaster, this aged white blonde model pairs an ash body with a one-piece rift-sawn maple neck and maple fingerboard. Its three hand-wound Tomatillo single-coils run through a five-way blade switch, with dedicated neck/middle and bridge tone controls. The vintage-style synchronized tremolo uses bent steel saddles, while the narrow-tall frets and 1.650-inch bone nut define the playing layout. A strap, certificate of authenticity, and deluxe hardshell case are part of the package.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who want five switch positions and separate bridge versus neck/middle tone control.
- Guitarists seeking a right-handed Stratocaster with a vintage-style synchronized tremolo.
- Transporting the guitar in the supplied deluxe hardshell case.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; the instrument is specified as right handed.
- Players needing a pickup layout other than three single-coils.
