Awesome!

[@troywm1016]

Don't these have super tiny necks? I had one when they first came out and remember the neck was pencil thin.

[@jamiesguitars]

Yeah, definitely the thinnest strat neck I've played.

[@gameoakesy8870]

Jamie Patterson Is the neck thin in terms of like nut width or thin in terms of the neck shape. Cheers

[@tenniswilliam]

I have this as well with a maple cap on the neck - is yours the same. These are considered better than US made at the time

[@jamiesguitars]

Yes mate, maple cap no skunk stripes on this one

[@hambaallah-tp9hb]

what pups use on this guitar

[@MyFirstGen]

I just picked one up today. Same color, I paid 399 plus tax. Do you think it was a good deal?

[@jamiesguitars]

hheidrick hi mate, mine has te headstock the correct way(not inverted) what is yours like. If it is from the same period as mine then you had a bargain

[@thelouds5288]

How did you find the production number? I have a MIJ stratocaster that's identical to yours.

[@samuelstevenson8587]

How much are these worth mate?

[@jamiesguitars]

Samuel Stevenson ballpark of £500-600

[@samuelstevenson8587]

Thanks, I'm trying to do some research, do you know what pickups are in it? And i didnt know they had floating bridges?

[@jamiesguitars]

Samuel Stevenson hi mate, the pickups are usually regarded as crap from this era fujigen but I know people who would disagree. Couldn't tell you the model number but I've had a tex mex set installed into mine

[@jamiesguitars]

Samuel Stevenson also they do have floating bridges but I usually block them off with a chunk of wood and tighten the screws attached to the springs. Depends what are you looking for?

[@samuelstevenson8587]

Oh right, I've read that these Japanese strats form this era (80s) rivalled the American made guitars of the time, what dos you think?
