Squier JV Stratocaster SST-30The original reissue. The JV (Japanese Vintage) series was launched by Fender in an effort to win back the custom it was loosing to the booming Japanese copy market. Fender needed to go back to their roots and make guitars like they used to; the result were these excellent vintage spec’d instruments built at the famous FujiGen factory in Japan, by the luthiers that were responsible for the copies that were hurting Fenders sales!These E serials followed the JV and SQ serials by a matter of months and have become highly sought after due to their rarity and phenomenal build quality and playability. Our ’85 is no exception, with a gorgeous neck and a beautifully aged Vintage White finish.Spec:
Alder body
1-piece Maple neck
Single ply pickguard (8 screw)
21 vintage frets
3x Fender Japan vintage voiced single-coil pickups
1x Master Volume control
2x Tone control
5-way selector
Stratocaster bridge and tremolo system
Our Strat is in good condition for a guitar of this vintage. There’s the odd bump and scrape here and there but nothing unsightly. The previous owner decided to paint all the plastics in some kind of nasty gloss paint (people suck), but they are the original plastics (as far as I can tell). Freshly set up with D’Addario 10’s and ready to go!
