1996 Fender Custom Edition Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster ST72-140YM Yellow White w/ Dimarzio, Case & Hangtag, Japan MIJ
1996 Fender Custom Edition Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster ST72-140YM Yellow White w/ Dimarzio, Case & Hangtag, Japan MIJ
Up for sale, a 1996 Fender Yngwie Malmsteen Signature Stratocaster Custom Edition model ST72-140YM in excellent, 100% original condition and perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case and hangtag. Produced in the third year of Yngwie's official endorsement with Fender Japan, this Fujigen factory-made model was the highest tiered iteration available. A discontinued, non-export model designed for sale only within Japan, this Yngwie Strat features a scalloped maple fretboard, brass nut, super jumbo fretwire, and a pair DiMarzio HS-3 single coil pickups.
Pickups include USA-made DiMarzio HS-3 single coils in the bridge and neck positions, with a Fender Japan alnico magnet single coil in the middle. The DiMarzios offers hum-free performance with a broad low end that's warm and tight with a smooth, glassy treble response. These qualities combine perfectly with a heavily distorted amp for a sound that retains excellent detail and focus. As Dimarzio puts it, the HS-3 is the, "weapon of choice for Strat-powered classical metal." This Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster ST72-140YM weighs 7lbs 8oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss finish is abbreviated YWH (Yellow White), as it's a purposefully yellowed iteration of Olympic White that closely matches Yngwie's vintage Strats. Cosmetic wear is limited to pick scuffing across the guard and some minor dings and finish scratches. The ambered gloss on the neck profile is smooth and clean.
The original tweed hardshell case is included, along with the hangtag.
