USED Fender Japan / ST57-115 Tabacco Sunburst [12]

Fender Japan Stratocaster from the popular JV serial period is in stock!
This 1982 ST57-115 from the dawn of Fender Japan is a replica of the 1957 specs, Fender's signature spec from the 50s.
It has a center bookmatched 2-piece alder body, 1-piece maple neck with 21 frets, and a slim C-shape neck shape for all playing styles and forms, instead of a soft V.
The neck shape is not a soft V, but a slim C shape for all playing styles and forms. Vintage pickups made in the USA and lacquered finish are appropriate for the best models of the time, and the quality of the finish is as good as that of the Stratocaster made in the USA.

The broken part of the arm remains on the bridge, so the arm is not usable in its current condition.
There are many scratches and dents scattered throughout, and the paint is cloudy and there are some minor dents scattered around the skunk stripe on the neck, but there are no problems with the playing.
The nut has been replaced and the frets are quite worn, but all parts have been maintained and cleaned at our repair center, and playability is good.
