► Product Overview

1993-1994 Fender Japan ST-Champ Mini Stratocaster - MIJ Travel 
Guitar with Built-in Amp & Overdrive

A genuinely unique piece of Fender Japan history - the ST-Champ is 
a short-scale "travel" Stratocaster with a built-in amplifier, 
speaker, and overdrive circuit, all packed into a compact body. 
Produced for only a brief window in the mid-1990s, these have 
become quietly sought-after by collectors of unusual Japanese 
guitars and travel instruments.

This particular example is from the earliest production run, with a 
Q-prefix serial number indicating 1993-1994 manufacture at the 
Fujigen plant - the same factory responsible for the most respected 
Fender Japan models of that era. Compared to the later CIJ-period 
ST-Champs (P/O serial), the early Fujigen examples are widely 
considered the better-built variant.

review all photos carefully for the exact cosmetic condition.

== WHY THIS GUITAR ==
A fun and characterful piece of MIJ Fender history - the ST-Champ 
combines short-scale playability with a quirky built-in amp setup 
that makes it perfect for couch practice, travel, or simply as a 
unique addition to your collection. Early Fujigen-made examples in 
classic 3-Tone Sunburst remain the most sought-after configuration.
