Fender Japan Stratocasters enjoy enduring popularity thanks to their affordable pricing, consistent quality, and extensive lineup.
This particular unit was manufactured by Fujigen between 1993 and 1994.

It faithfully reproduces the characteristics of the 1957 model, including the "small headstock," one-piece maple neck, and 8-screw, single-ply pickguard.

The neck features a rounded, slightly slender profile, along with a vintage-style fretboard radius and fret size.

The body is crafted from basswood. It offers a comfortable weight, while the finish has developed a unique character due to aging and discoloration.

The pickups are the originals from that era; with their moderate output, they deliver a classic single-coil tone.

The instrument shows signs of age and use consistent with its vintage, including wear on the finish and parts, as well as scuffs and dings.
The tuning peg for the first string has been replaced, and the back plate installed is a shorter version intended for the 2nd through 5th strings; however, functionality remains unaffected.

Upon arrival at our shop, the frets were leveled, and the instrument has been set up for excellent playability with no dead notes.
Approximately 60% of the fret life remains, and there is still room for adjustment in the tightening direction of the truss rod.

Fender Japan instruments from the "Fujigen era" are highly sought after internationally. If you have been looking for one, don't miss this opportunity!
