Up for sale, a 2023 Fender FSR Collection Hybrid II Stratocaster in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with hangtags. This Japan-exclusive Strat is an ideal combination of classic aesthetics and modern, player-friendly features. Premium appointments include a two-point Synchronized Tremolo, locking tuners, USA-spec CTS pots, a satin-finished Modern C neck profile, and a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with a modern 9 1/2“ radius and narrow/tall fretwire. This FSR (Factory Special Run) model was produced for a single dealer and sourced direct from Tokyo, featuring a gloss Walnut finish with matching headstock.

The Hybrid II Custom Voiced single coils feature staggered, beveled alnico pole pieces, specifically voiced to accentuate the best qualities of each pickup position. The bridge is sparkling and clear, with a touch of extra low end kick, the neck pickup is throaty and full, and the “in-between” positions on the five-way selector switch deliver a quintessential hollow Strat quack. This Hybrid II Stratocaster weighs 7lbs 13oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action and accurate intonation.
