Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The black ST3 Retro II is a right-handed, six-string B.C. Rich electric guitar with a Canadian hardrock maple neck, ebony fingerboard, and 22 extra-jumbo frets across a 25.5-inch scale. Seymour Duncan pickups include an SH-6 Custom bridge unit with ceramic magnets. A Floyd Rose 1000 Series double-locking tremolo works with the locking nut, while Grover 503 locking tuners handle tuning adjustments. Master volume, master tone, and a three-way blade switch keep the pickup controls familiar.
