Up for sale, a 2023 Fender Traditional ‘60s Stratocaster Limited Edition Olympic White/Blue Competition Stripe in like-new condition, complete with the original gigbag and hangtags. This “Made in Japan” Stratocaster was produced for the Japanese domestic market and select international territories, featuring a gloss Olympic White finish accented by a centrally-located competition stripe.
Tonewoods include a basswood body, maple neck, and slab rosewood fretboard, and this Strat is featherweight at 6lbs 12oz. The trio of Vintage-Style single coil pickups feature alnico magnet construction, and there's plenty of sonic range via the five-way pickup selector. The neck pickup has a gutsy cut, while toggling to the bridge yields a sparkling spank. This 2023 Collection Traditional ‘60s Strat has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and spot-on intonation.

The gloss Olympic White finish is accented by the blue competition stripe, centrally positioned as opposed to the more common placement across the arm contour. Imported direct from Toyko and virtually unplayed since new, there's barely a scratch on the body, and the gloss on the neck profile is similarly immaculate.
The original Fender-branded gigbag is included, along with the hangtags.
