Up for sale, a 2014 Fender Stratocaster ‘57 vintage reissue model ST57-TX in showroom-clean, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with hangtags and loaded with Fender Custom Shop Texas Special pickups. This upper-tiered and long ago discontinued “Made in Japan” model was produced exclusively for the Japanese domestic market, uncommon outside its country of origin

Tonewoods include an alder body and a one-piece maple neck, ensuring a clear, balanced platform for the Texas Specials pickups. These Custom Shop Fender single coils match vintage spec with black fiber bobbins, cloth-covered leads and staggered alnico magnets, delivering a bevy of sparkling classic Strat tonalities with a slightly aggressive overwound snap. The bridge pickup is sparkling and chewy, and the neck position has a full, bell-like breadth. This Strat weighs 7lbs 13oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
