Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Candy Apple Red gives this Classic Vibe '60s Custom Esquire a clean custom-style presentation, with double body binding around its gloss-finished poplar body. The single Fender-designed alnico bridge pickup is paired with Esquire-specific three-way wiring: one setting bypasses the tone circuit, one uses the master tone control, and one applies a preset treble reduction. That makes the control layout deliberately simple while retaining three distinct pickup-circuit voices. A tinted maple neck, Indian laurel fingerboard and 21 narrow-tall frets complete the 25.5-inch-scale layout.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage or studio parts that benefit from a single bridge pickup with three selectable circuit voices.
- Players who want direct volume and tone controls rather than a multi-pickup layout.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who require a separate neck pickup; the guitar has one bridge-position single-coil.
