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 one....a '62 Reissue Telecaster in vintage white. These are the specs:

Pickguard 3-Ply White Aged
Condition
This is a 2007- Crafted in Japan 'S' serial. It is in excellent condition; there are a couple of marks on the bottom inside edge and the slightest ding imaginable on the top. Frankly it is all but invisible, but I want you to know it is there. There is no fret wear worth speaking of and all controls work smoothly and without crackle. 

This guitar seems to have hardly been used, and when an instrument is as good as this, there isn't much to say about it other than I wish I could get more! 

Comments

Acoustically the alder body has a lovely tone and resonance. Plugged in, the US-made Vintage pups give it a nice, full Tele sound. A new set of 10s has been fitted and it plays nicely right up the neck. With this guitar you have the best of both world's; Japanese build quality and  US pups.. but with a reasonable price tag.

This is a superb looking and sounding guitar... highly recommended.
