Fender MIJ Limited Edition Traditional ‘60s Stratocaster in Sonic Blue

It’s no exaggeration to say that Fender’s MIJ models are consistently among the very finest guitars we have in stock. Even today, with increased availability in the West, supply is more patchy than with models produced in, say, North America. Combined, these factors produce a range of guitars for which our staff have a particular soft spot. This is only increased with Limited Run models such as this Traditional Series Strat, of which only a handful will reach the EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) region.

This guitar’s foundation is an American Basswood body, imbuing it with a lightness and musicality which suits the Strat perfectly. To this is bolted a “U”-Shape Maple neck, topped with a 9.5”-radius Rosewood fretboard for intuitive playability. The three Vintage-Style Single-Coil Strat pickups provide an array of period-correct tones, controlled via a 5-way selector switch.

A 6-Saddle Vintage-Style Synchronised Tremolo transports you back to the era of psychedelic tonal experimentation, while the looks are straight out of the period too: the gloss Sonic Blue finish has been painstakingly applied, matching perfectly with the Mint Green pickguard.

The Limited Edition Fender MIJ Traditional 60s Stratocaster in Sonic Blue is your ticket back to popular music’s seminal decade, executed with all the precision of Japan’s finest luthiers.
