Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Blue Burst and a flamed maple veneer set the visual direction for this limited-edition Player II Stratocaster HSS Plus Top. Underneath is an alder body, maple neck and maple fingerboard. Its HSS arrangement places a Player Series Alnico 2 humbucker at the bridge with Player Series Alnico 5 single-coils in the middle and neck, selected by a five-position blade. Separate tone assignments for neck/middle and bridge pickups give each side of the layout its own control.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Changing between bridge humbucker and neck or middle single-coil settings during recorded rhythm and lead parts.
- Players who want separate tone control for the bridge pickup and the neck/middle pickup pair.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who want three single-coil pickups or a supplied case or gig bag.
