Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Black-finished Sonic Stratocaster with a maple fingerboard, three ceramic single-coil pickups, and a five-way selector. Its thin, lightweight poplar body and slim C-shaped maple neck keep the instrument focused on a comfortable playing layout. Master volume plus separate tone controls for the neck/middle and bridge pickups give you direct control over the pickup settings. The synchronized tremolo bridge adds vibrato capability, while sealed die-cast tuners handle tuning adjustments.
