Apart from a handful of models (which are
unique to Japan and therefore would not interfere with sales of US or
Mexican models) Fender Japan are prevented from officially exporting to
Europe or the US. What is made in Japan stays in Japan. This is what we
are missing out on.....a '57 Reissue Stratocaster in Fiesta Red. These are the specs:

| Condition |
| This a 2002-2004- Crafted
in Japan 'Q' serial and it is in superb condition.
I could not find a photographable on it.
There is virtually no fret wear and all controls work smoothly and without
noise. The action is excellent.
When a used guitar is as good as
this, there just isn't much I can say about it... thing 'virtually
new'

Comments |
| The acoustic properties
of alder impart a lovely tone and resonance and this guitar has
bags of sustain. Plug in and all the same qualities are evident.
Texas Specials are wonderful pickups. You can get a nice full,
clean sound from them, or you can drive them unmercifully. Either
way, they really deliver..
This is a superb guitar - looks
great, sounds great, and is in superb condition. Highly
recommended.
