Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Lake Placid Blue gives this right-handed Affinity Stratocaster a familiar solidbody, double-cutaway outline. The poplar body supports three Affinity Series single-coil pickups, selected by a five-way switch and shaped with master volume plus two individual tone controls. A maple slim C neck and maple fingerboard carry 21 medium-jumbo frets over a 25.5-inch scale. The hardware combines a two-point fulcrum tremolo with sealed split-shaft tuners for bridge and restringing duties. A case is available separately.
Strong match
Who this is for
