A rare, early Fender Japan Stratocaster produced at the Fujigen factory during the golden age of \"Made in Japan\" output, this Strat features a transparent Charcoal Marine (CCM) gloss finish over the prominent grain of the American basswood body, accented by gold hardware throughout.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThis Strat has a balanced, lively natural acoustic quality which is translated faithfully through the trio of alnico magnet single coils. The bridge position has a sparkling, authoritative zing, the middle position single coil has a percussive clarity, and the neck position is throaty and warm while still having a peppy snap in the top end. And of course, there’s hollow quack at positions 2 and 4 on the five-way pickup selector switch. Weighing 7lbs 3oz, this Stratocaster has been professionally setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nNeck Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Wood: Maple\u003cbr\u003e\n-Shape: Medium C, measuring .845” 1st fret, .975” 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e\n-Fretboard: Maple, 7 1\/4” vintage-spec radius\u003cbr\u003e\n-Frets: Slender, no wear\u003cbr\u003e\n-Scale Length: 25 ½”\u003cbr\u003e\n-Nut: 1.650” (42mm), bone\u003cbr\u003e\n-Tuners: Kluson-style, Gotoh\u003cbr\u003e\n-Serialization: “Made in Japan”, O-prefix\u003cbr\u003e\n-Factory Markings: Model stamps on neck heel\/pocket\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBody Specs:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n-Wood: American basswood\u003cbr\u003e\n-Pickups: ST-Vintage single coil x3\u003cbr\u003e\n-Harness: Untouched solder, full-size Japanese pots date to February, 1993\u003cbr\u003e\n-Controls: Volume, Tone x2, Five-way pickup selector\u003cbr\u003e\n-Hardware: Synchronized Tremolo, jack cup\u003cbr\u003e\n-Plastics: One-ply white pickguard, lightly yellowed knobs\/pickup covers\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe clear coat on the gloss Charcoal Marine finish has yellowed, yielding a greenish hue, with very subtle “charcoal” streaking highlighting the grain of the American basswood body.
