Vintage strat: Fresher Straighter FS500 4th gen Great Stratocaster replica Made in Japan in '80s

I play, collect, and restore Vintage Japanese Guitars, and when the right time comes, I let them inspire someone else! 

This is a part of my collection. I own over 25 MIJ guitars, mostly Tokai, Greco, Fernandes, and Fresher. Every guitar in my collection goes through the same process: buying directly from owners in Japan, importing to Europe, stabilizing to perfect humidity (45-55%), and restoring.

Tasty, Fresher, with a modern touch! Those Stratocasters are as good as Springy/Goldstar Sound Tokais (ST/TST-50 or higher) and Super Sound Grecos (SE500 and higher) but relatively less hyped.

Since guitar players started to notice them, 4th-gen freshers will only get more expensive in the next few years.

Over the past few years, my collection has become full of Freshers because of their extraordinary craftsmanship and more modern qualities than Greco and Tokai: quieter electronics and bigger/wider frets.

Produced in Chushin Gakki. At the same time, Jackson guitars were made in the same factory.

This particular one presents very lovely, dark rosewood on the fretboard. It is lightweight and comfortable. Thanks to medium size C to D profile neck with a modern 10" radius on the fretboard.

The guitar is all-original.

Of course, it is a stage-ready polished guitar, with the final setup and entire rewire made by Szymon Kowalski, a master builder from SKG Custom Guitars.
