Fender Stratocaster ST-62G-80 Texas Special - 2-Tone Sunburst (Gold Hardware)

A beautiful example of a classic ’62-style Strat with the tone everyone is chasing. This Japanese-made ST-62G-80 delivers that unmistakable vintage Strat character, powered by a factory set of original Texas Special pickups - clear, punchy, dynamic, and full of expressive bite when pushed. Think glassy neck tones, woody mids, and that iconic Strat quack in positions 2 and 4. This particular model features factory gold hardware, giving the guitar a refined, upscale look that pairs perfectly with the timeless 2-Tone Sunburst finish. It’s a classy, eye-catching combination that stands out while still staying true to vintage Strat style.

The guitar is in excellent overall condition with only minimal signs of normal playwear (please see photos for details). It has been well cared for and plays smoothly with comfortable action and a lively, resonant feel.

Everything on the instrument remains all original, preserving its authentic character and collectibility.

Imported from Japan in 2026, this guitar is a fantastic option for players and collectors looking for a true vintage-style Strat experience without the vintage price tag.

The following work has been done: full cleaning, fret polishing and string height setup (2.3 mm at the 12th fret on the low E string), pickup height adjusted for balance and clarity, and a fresh set of D'Addario XL 10/46 strings installed.
