Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for broad electric-guitar work, this right-handed American Ultra II Stratocaster combines a Haymaker bridge humbucker with Noiseless Hot Strat pickups at the neck and middle. The five-way blade and S-1 volume switch provide several pickup options, including a coil-split bridge humbucker. Its quartersawn maple Modern D neck has an Ultra satin finish, while the ebony fingerboard uses a 10–14 inch compound radius. A tapered neck heel, sculpted contours, locking tuners and two-point synchronized tremolo round out the working setup.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Moving between clean rhythm sounds and high-gain leads with an HSS pickup layout.
- Lead passages that need access to upper frets and visible side markers on dark stages.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; this is a right-handed instrument.
- Players seeking an SSS pickup configuration rather than a bridge humbucker.
