Must-see for those seeking a standard Strat! A gorgeous specimen featuring tiger-stripe grain throughout the entire neck!


For those who want a Strat but aren't sure which one to choose, we've just received a perfect model: a standard yet distinctive instrument with outstanding sound and looks.


Based on its serial number and specifications,

this is believed to be an ST-62 manufactured between 1997 and 2000.




The ST62 by Fender Japan,

inspired by the classic 1962 Stratocaster design and featuring the high precision assembly typical of Japanese craftsmanship,

remains a highly popular model to this day.


This instrument sports the quintessential Strat 3-Tone Sunburst finish.

Within its vintage-style presence,

you can sense the character unique to a guitar that's been played for years.


Particularly noteworthy is the beautiful tiger-stripe figure visible across the entire neck.

This distinct grain pattern, clearly visible even through the finish,

not only adds visual appeal but also satisfies the desire for ownership

by showcasing the unique character inherent to each individual instrument.


Basswood is used for the body.

This wood offers minimal quirks and excellent tonal balance across the frequency range,

naturally producing the clear, characteristic Stratocaster sound.

Its versatility is a major appeal, handling everything from clean to crunch with ease and suiting any genre.


While some may view basswood negatively,

recent demand for home recording has seen it actively adopted even by premium brands

for its lack of strong character and excellent response to effects.

Combined with its light weight, this results in an exceptionally playable guitar.


The pickup is a Seymour Duncan SSL-1.

This classic model combines vintage-style output with excellent clarity,

offering a rich palette from bell-like clean tones

to bluesy drive tones, making it a practical choice for live performance.


The Fender Japan ST62 combines classic looks, reliable Japanese-made quality,

and ready-to-play upgrades.

It's an appealing instrument both for players and collectors.


We encourage you to consider this opportunity.
