Up for sale, a 1990 Fender Order Made Stratocaster model ST62 in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. Fender Japan's Order Made program functioned as a sort of Fender Japan custom shop, offering a bevy of non-catalog features and finishes. This Strat features a sleek look with a gloss Black finish (matching neck and headstock) and black plastics, accented by gold hardware and a six-point vibrato with brass block saddles.
The trio of ST-Vintage single coil pickups deliver quintessential Strat tonalities at each position on the five-way pickup selector switch: the bridge has a snappy sparkle, the neck is smooth and broad with a woody bark, and the “in-between” positions offer hollow honk and quack. This Order Made Stratocaster weighs 8lbs 4oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
