Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Finished in Transparent Cherry Burst, this Player II Stratocaster HSS uses a chambered mahogany body and a slab rosewood fingerboard. Chambering reduces body weight while the mahogany construction is described as resonant and sustaining. The neck and middle Alnico 5 single-coils supply crisp, articulate voices; the Alnico 2 bridge humbucker brings a warmer, larger lead sound. A Modern C maple neck, 22 medium-jumbo frets, five-way switching, and a two-point tremolo give you a familiar working layout for rhythm passages, lead lines, and expressive pitch movement.
