Up for sale, a 1994 Fender Yngwie Malmsteen Signature Stratocaster Custom Edition model ST72-140YM in showroom-clean, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. Produced in the first year of Yngwie's official endorsement with Fender Japan, this Fujigen factory-made model was the highest tiered iteration available. A discontinued, non-export model designed for sale only within Japan, this Yngwie Strat features a scalloped maple fretboard, brass nut, super jumbo fretwire, and a pair DiMarzio HS-3 single coil pickups.
Pickups include USA-made DiMarzio HS-3 single coils in the bridge and neck positions, with a Fender Japan alnico magnet single coil in the middle position. The Dimarzios offers hum-free performance with a broad low end that's warm and tight with a smooth, glassy treble response. These qualities combine perfectly with a heavily distorted amp, because the sound won’t get muddy or messy, and as Dimarzio puts it, the HS-3 is the, "weapon of choice for Strat-powered classical metal." This ST72-140YM weighs 7lbs 13oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, slinky action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss finish is abbreviated YWH (Yellow White), as it's a purposefully yellowed iteration of Olympic White that closely matches Yngwie's vintage Strats, and cosmetic wear is limited to just a couple tiny dings on the back and a few faint marks on the lower bout perimeter. The smooth ambered gloss on the neck profile is flawless.
The original G&G tweed hardshell case is included.
