The Coronado’s pickup (made by DeArmond), bridge, and tremolo designs were distinct from Fender’s solidbodies.

In addition, they were available in Wildwood colors.

Wildwood was actually beechwood with dye injected into the tree before it was cut. Fender organized the colors, which ranged from green to orange to blue, under a Roman-numeral system, and the greenish Wildwood II was the most commonly seen.
