USED Fender Japan / ST57-600L Black [11]

A left-handed Stratocaster from the Fujigen era that combines the classic look of a '57 model with ease of playability.
This is a 1990 ST57-600L. The "ST-57L" stamp in the neck pocket and the neck date "3-13-90" clearly confirm its period of manufacture.

Featuring a small headstock paired with a one-piece maple neck, this is the quintessential 1957-style design.
Despite its simple construction, this guitar offers a balanced tone and ease of play, making it a versatile instrument suitable for any genre.

It is equipped with original ST-Vintage pickups.
With bright, clear highs and a natural midrange, you can fully enjoy that classic Stratocaster sound from clean tones to light overdrive.
This is a rare left-handed Japanese-made Stratocaster.

* Tremolo arm missing
Due to severe paint peeling on the fingerboard surface, we performed a fingerboard repair. We stripped the fingerboard finish, corrected the fingerboard, refretted, leveled the frets, and replaced the nut.
The finish features small-size frets, a natural wood stain, and an oil finish.

There are paint cracks extending from the joint plate bolt positions to the back panel.
Additionally, there are scratches, dents, and metal rust throughout the body, indicating signs of use.
There are no noticeable issues with the neck, and it is in good playing condition.
Condition Grade: B: Shows significant scratches and signs of use, but is in good working order for normal use
