Up for sale, a 1987 Fender Stratocaster ‘62 vintage reissue model ST62-70 in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This upper tiered “Made in Japan” Strat was crafted at the Fujigen factory during the golden era of Fender Japan production with an E-prefix serial, pencil dated neck heel and USA-made pickups.

Weighing 7lbs 12oz, tonewoods include an alder body, maple neck, and slab rosewood fretboard. The trio of single coils are the same 57/62 pickups seen in early American Vintage series models, featuring black bobbins, staggered alnico magnets and cloth-covered leads. These pickups deliver a bevy of quintessential sparkling Strat tonalities, with a distinct sound at each position on the three-way pickup selector switch, offering gutsy spank at the bridge and fuller, bell-like chime at the neck. This Stratocaster ST62-70 benefits from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
