RARE!
This guitar looks, sounds, and plays great!
Classic 80s Super-Strat! Matched neck and headstock!
WITH HEAD CRASHER FRT-6C LOCKING TREMOLO - Floyd Rose, for unknown reasons, discontinued the Fernandes Japan contract following the Kramer deal.

And because of this, Fernandes arguably made one of the best licensed Floyd Rose units of the era!

Fernandes FST-65 super-Strat style, made in Japan between 84-87, this one dates to 1985!
This is a very cool example of 80s MIJ shreddable super Strats. It's nicely put together and feels extremely sturdy and reassuring in the hands, the neck and frets etc are all bang-on.
The 'Head Crasher' (best name ever) tremolo functions like a Floyd Rose, but you don't need to remove the ball ends and clamp the strings in; it's a little simpler. It's very stable and fun to do crazy tricks on. The also-brilliantly-named Dog Fighter pickup look awesome, they're high-output passive pickups and they crunch up nicely.
Handy little shred-machine!
