Up for sale, a 1987 Fender Boxer Series Stratocaster model ST557 in perfect working order. Produced at the Fujigen factory during the golden age of Fender Japan production, this “Made in Japan” Boxer Series model features a trio of Hot Rod single coil pickups and a Blade Shooter tremolo.
Tonewoods include a basswood body and a one-piece maple neck, and this Strat is particularly smooth and lively-sounding acoustically. The trio of Hot Rod single coil pickups is snappy and sparkling, coupled to a five-way pickup selector. This ST557 weighs 7lbs 13oz, professionally set up here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
