Fender Japan Stratocaster Black w/ Monty's Guitars '54 Stratocaster Pickups Set

Fender Japan Stratocaster Black w/ Monty's Guitars '54 Stratocaster Pickups Set

Our store's unique Fender Japan Stratocaster, which has a significantly upgraded pickup grade, is now in stock!

This is a black colored Strat with the Q serial "Made in Japan" notation, and was manufactured by Fujigen in 1993-1994.Because it is manufactured in Japan, it maintains stable quality and high cost performance, while providing modern performance performance that can be adapted to a variety of styles.

The standard wood material is a maple neck with a thick grip, the fingerboard is maple 21F, and the controls are simple with 1VOL / 2TONE.Tone has no effect on the rear.The pickguard is 1-ply and looks like Eric Clapton's favorite Blackie.

At our store, we have replaced the original pickup with "Monty's Guitars '54 Stratocaster Pickups Parchment."(Please note that the original is not included)

“Monty’s Guitars” is a high-end pickup brand from London, UK.Founder Matt Gleeson has thoroughly analyzed vintage pickups and rebuilt the tone for modern players, bringing out the best performance regardless of genre.

The '54 Stratocaster Pickup is a model that faithfully reproduces the original set from when Stratocaster pickups were first produced.It has been reborn as a practical site specification.

It has a mid-range character reminiscent of a Telecaster, which is common to excellent mid-50s Strat pickups, and adds exquisite fatness to the rise of the sound unique to maple fingerboards.However, it does not compromise clarity or harmonic content.The thickness of the midrange also provides the power to drive the amplifier firmly when needed, creating a thick and clear drive sound with a vintage feel.

True to the original, these pickups use hand-chamfered magnets to accurately recreate the 1954 magnetic stagger.

Like old Fender pickups, all Monty's Stratocaster pickups are only "partially potted."This frees up the center of the coil for a more responsive tone.

If you're looking for a guitar that has the tone from the earliest period, but with practical specifications that can be used in the field, please choose this one.
