Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Three Player Series Alnico V Strat single-coils and a five-way blade switch put the Player II Stratocaster’s pickup choices at hand, from the neck and bridge positions to its in-between settings. Separate tone controls cover the neck/middle group and bridge pickup, so you can refine either side of the switch. The alder double-cut body pairs with a 25.5-inch scale maple Modern C neck, rolled-edge rosewood fingerboard and 22 medium-jumbo frets. A two-point synchronized tremolo with bent steel saddles completes the instrument’s Stratocaster control layout.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Using five single-coil pickup selections for rhythm parts, lead passages and in-between pickup textures.

Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
