2009 Fender Stratocaster ‘57 Vintage Reissue ST57 Fiesta Red, Japan MIJ

$1,099.99

+ shipping

Up for sale, a 2009 Fender Stratocaster ‘57 vintage reissue model ST57 in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This “Made in Japan” Strat was produced exclusively for the Japanese domestic market at the Dyna Gakki factory, uncommon outside of its country of origin, featuring a custom color Fiesta Red gloss finish.

Tonewoods include a basswood body and one-piece maple neck, and the trio of ceramic magnet Fender single coil pickups have a clear sound, with more punch and top end snap than most alnico varieties, delivering a range of classic Strat tonalities at each position on the five-way pickup selector switch. This Strat weighs 7lbs 9oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and spot-on intonation.

The custom color Fiesta Red gloss finish has a bit of requisite pick scuffing along the strum path, and just a scant few tiny dings on the body as a whole. The smooth ambered gloss on the neck profile is flawless.

A gigbag is included.
