The Korena take

Built around three hand-wound Custom Shop ’69 single-coils, this relic-finished Stratocaster gives you five pickup selections plus a 1/2 blend control for shaping the mix between pickups. The RWRP middle pickup is intended to reduce hum in switch positions 2 and 4, useful when changing sounds during a set or recording. A Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo, bone nut, 21 vintage frets, and 25.5 scale complete the playing platform.
