Fender Tradition Revisited Through Japanese Craftsmanship
The Made in Japan Traditional series combines Fender's historic DNA with Japanese execution renowned for its consistency. This Traditional 60s Stratocaster reflects the vintage Strat aesthetic (nickel/chrome hardware, 3-ply pickguard, understated details) while adopting modern playability choices to offer a guitar inspired by the past but perfectly suited to today's expectations.
Who Is It For, and Which Styles?
This left-handed Stratocaster is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a "sixties"-styled guitar to work on touch and nuances. The SSS configuration excels in blues, vintage rock, funk, pop, and indie: sharp attacks, defined arpeggios, crisp rhythms, and expressive leads with both pick and fingers.
The Sound
The combination of the basswood body (balanced attack, present mids) and the three Vintage-Style single-coil pickups emphasizes clarity and dynamics. The 5-position selector allows switching from a sharper bridge tone to more scooped and "cluck" intermediate positions for rhythm playing, up to a rounder, singing neck pickup. The vintage 6-saddle Synchronized Tremolo vibrato delivers the traditional Strat feel and favors light vibrato effects while maintaining a decidedly musical character.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
For transport, this guitar is compatible with a Classic Series Stratocaster/Telecaster Wood Hardshell Case (part number 0996106306, not included). To stay as close as possible to the original specifications, a set of Nickel Plated Steel strings in .009-.042 gauge is perfectly suitable.
