Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The Birch Green Player II Stratocaster HSS pairs a rosewood fingerboard with Fender’s HSS layout: Alnico V single-coils at the neck and middle, and an Alnico II humbucker at the bridge. Its five pickup positions cover each pickup alone as well as the bridge/middle and middle/neck combinations, so changing parts does not require changing guitars. An alder body, satin-finished Modern C maple neck, rolled fingerboard edges, 22 medium-jumbo frets, and a two-point synchronized tremolo put the emphasis on hands-on Strat control with a wider bridge-pickup option.
