Up for sale, a 1993 Fender Custom Edition Stratocaster ‘57 vintage reissue model ST57G-65 in perfect working order. 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 Green (CCG) gloss finish over the prominent grain of the American basswood body, accented by gold hardware throughout.
This 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. Lightweight at 6lbs 12oz, this Stratocaster has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Charcoal Green finish highlights subtle “charcoal” streaking highlighting the grain of the American basswood body. There is an area of buckle rash central to the back, a scratch on top at the bass-side waist, and some dings and scuffs on the body as a whole. The neck retains its smooth ambered gloss with some small marks on the profile length.
A modern Fender gigbag is included.
