Fender 2023 Collection Made In Japan Traditional 60s Stratocaster, Aged Dakota Red

The Made in Japan Traditional series was derived by fusing Fender’s traditional instrument-making aesthetics with sophisticated Japanese craftsmanship. Fender’s orthodox DNA is revived with certain Made in Japan quality.

The 2023 Collection, MIJ Traditional ‘60s Stratocaster®, Aged colour features a gloss-finished basswood body, vintage-style 21 frets, and a 9.5-inch-radius “U”-shaped maple neck that provides classical performance unique to the Traditional series. A six-saddle vintage-style Synchronized Tremolo bridge and original pickups selected for the Traditional Series deliver authentic, musical vintage tones. The narrow nut width makes for easy playability.

This product reproduces the original colour of Fender at the time. You can enjoy the colour of this product that has become deeper with age.
