Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The 62 Stratocaster Relic pairs three Custom Shop hand-wound Fat '60s single-coil pickups with five-way blade switching for familiar Strat pickup combinations. Its master volume incorporates a tone-saver treble-bleed circuit, intended to retain high-end clarity as you lower the volume. The build combines a two-piece offset-seam select alder body, maple neck, and 3A rosewood fingerboard, with 21 Jescar vintage frets. A Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo provides vibrato control, and the relic treatment completes the aged Seminole red presentation.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Rolling down the master volume while retaining the circuit's specified high-end clarity.
  • Using five pickup positions in rehearsal, recording, or live performance.
  • Carrying the instrument in the included deluxe hardshell case.

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Players looking for a fixed bridge; this Stratocaster uses a synchronized tremolo.
