Used Fender ST-362V

Increasingly, people are getting hip to how consistently good the guitars from Fender Japan have been since their inception in the early 1980s. This c. 1985 ST-362V takes inspiration from a 1962 slab-board Stratocaster and sports a finish that seems to most closely resemble Torino Red or Race Red. It has held up well over the years, with playwear limited to a few shallow dings in the clearcoat on the body here and there and light wear in the fretwire in the first few positions, mainly beneath the second string. The original single coil pickups still sound great, furnishing classic strat tones with plenty of output in all five positions of the upgraded blade switch. Freshly setup and playing great with 10-46 gauge strings. This guitar includes a red Protec padded gig bag but does NOT include a vibrato arm.
