Crafted in the second year of Fender Japan production, this “Japanese Vintage” (JV) series guitar is a rare example, sporting a gloss Candy Apple Red finish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nExtremely accurate to vintage spec and sold only within Japan and select international territories, this Strat has a resonant alder body paired with a maple neck and slab rosewood fretboard, yielding a balanced, clear natural acoustic quality that translates well through the pickups. The trio of ST-Vintage Alnico magnet single coils have black fiber bobbins and staggered alnico magnets, delivering a traditional range of Strat tones. The bridge pickup is sparkling and clear, while the neck pickup has ideal fullness and a chiming bell-like top end, and the “in-between” positions on the five-way pickup selector switch deliver hollow, spanky quack. This JV Stratocaster weighs 8lbs 2oz, professionally setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nNeck Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n-Wood: Maple\u003cbr\u003e\n-Shape: Chunky C, measuring .870” 1st fret, .960” 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e\n-Fretboard: Rosewood slab, 7 1\/4” vintage-spec radius\u003cbr\u003e\n-Frets: Slender, no wear\u003cbr\u003e\n-Scale Length: 25 1\/2”\u003cbr\u003e\n-Nut: 1.650” (42mm), bone\u003cbr\u003e\n-Tuners: Kluson-style, Gotoh\u003cbr\u003e\n-Serialization: JV-prefix on neck plate\u003cbr\u003e\n-Factory Markings: Neck heel pencil dated 12-26-82\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nBody Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n-Wood: Alder\u003cbr\u003e\n-Pickups: ST-Vintage single coil x3\u003cbr\u003e\n-Harness: Untouched solder, full-size Japanese pots date to August, 1983\u003cbr\u003e\n-Controls: Volume, Tone x2, Five-way pickup selector\u003cbr\u003e\n-Hardware: Six-point vintage-style vibrato, jack cup\u003cbr\u003e\n-Plastics: Three-ply parchment pickguard, knobs, pickup covers\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe gloss Candy Apple Red finish has just one small finish chip adjacent to the rear strap button, a couple minor dings on the lower bout on top, and a few faint finish scratches in the clear coat.
