Large head style Stratocaster type electric guitar.

Made in Japan in 1983.

The frets are original and have been further fret-leveled so they are lower in height. However, there is no position where it does not sound good, and the sound extends even when playing bending.

This is a masterpiece from the golden age of Japanese guitar manufacturing when it was on the rise.

This is my favorite guitar. Please feel free to ask any questions.
