Up for sale, a 2006 Fender Stratocaster ‘72 vintage reissue model ST72-66US in 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This “Crafted in Japan” Strat is uncommon outside of its country of origin, featuring a set of Fender's American Vintage 57/62 single coil pickups and ‘70s-spec appointments including a large headstock with block logo, three-bolt neck plate, and block saddles.
The USA-made American Vintage 57/62 single coil pickups feature black fiber bobbins, staggered alnico magnets, and cloth-covered leads, and these pickups deliver a bevy of traditional Strat tonalities. The neck pickup is full and bell-like, with a throaty zing, the bridge has great sparkle and snap, and the “in-between” positions on the five-way pickup selector switch yield hollow spank. This Stratocaster weighs 7lbs 12oz, benefitting from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
Neck Specs:
-Wood: Maple
-Shape: Substantial C, full shoulders, measuring .880” 1st fret, .950” 12th fret
-Fretboard: Maple, 7 1/4” vintage-spec radius
-Frets: Slender, leveled and crowned, faint wear beneath the plain strings on frets 1-3
-Scale Length: 25 1/2”
-Nut: 1.650” (42mm), bone
-Tuners: Gotoh
-Serialization: “Crafted in Japan”, R-prefix
Body Specs:
-Wood: Basswood
-Pickups: American Vintage 57/62 single coil x3
-Controls: Volume, Tone x2, Five-way pickup selector
-Hardware: Six-point vibrato with block saddles
-Plastics: Three-ply white pickguard, gently aged knobs/pickup covers
The gloss finish is categorized as Yellow White by Fender Japan, approximating the yellowing that occurs on an Olympic White finish over time. Cosmetic wear includes buckle rash central to the back (largely constrained to the trem cavity cover) and a number of dings on the body as a whole, most prominent along the lower bout. The neck profile retains its smooth gloss, with several shallow marks central to the carve along the profile length that don't distract the palm while fretting.
A gigbag is included.
