1986 Fender Stratocaster ‘57 Vintage Reissue ST57-55 Sunburst Near-Mint w/ Hangtags, Japan MIJ Fujigen

1986 Fender Stratocaster ‘57 Vintage Reissue ST57-55 Sunburst Near-Mint w/ Hangtags, Japan MIJ Fujigen

Up for sale, a 1986 Fender Stratocaster ‘57 vintage reissue model ST57-55 in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with hangtags. This “Made in Japan” Stratocaster was crafted at the Fujigen factory for the Japanese domestic market during the golden age of Fender Japan production, long ago discontinued and uncommon outside of its country of origin.

The trio of single coil pickups feature Alnico magnet construction, and these pickups deliver classic Strat tonalities: the neck is round and bell-like, and the bridge pickup provides sparkling cut, with thinned-out cut in the "in-between" positions on the five-way switch. This Stratocaster ST57-55 weighs 7lbs 9oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

Neck Specs:

-Wood: Maple
-Shape: Medium C, measuring .840” 1st fret, .930” 12th fret
-Fretboard: Maple, vintage-spec 7 ¼” radius
-Frets: Slender, no wear
-Scale Length: 25 ½”
-Nut: 1.650” (42mm), bone

-Serialization: “Made in Japan,” E-prefix
-Factory Markings: Neck heel pencil dated 10-14-86, model stamp on neck heel, small blue “55” sticker on back of peghead denotes original model tier and price (¥55,000)

Body Specs:

-Wood: Basswood
-Pickups: ST-Vintage single coil x3
-Controls: Volume, Tone x2, Five-way pickup selector
-Harness: Untouched solder, full-size Japanese pots date to June, 1986
-Hardware: Synchronized Tremolo, jack cup
-Plastics: One-ply white pickguard, aged knobs/pickup covers

The gloss two-tone Sunburst finish shows just some faint finish scratches, with a few tiny dings on the treble-side and lower bout perimeter. The ambered gloss on the neck profile is pristine.

The original Fender-branded gigbag hangtags are included.
