Fender Standard Stratocasters made in Japan Export models differed from Japanese reissues for the clear ‘70s style logo on small headstock and flat pole pieces. The first model made between 1985-1987 was equipped with the Fender System 1 bridge, the second model/version only made in 1987 featured the Kahler 2520, the third model/version made between 1988-1989 used the Kahler 2720 Spyder assembly. Interesting note: these third models almost always did not feature the “Made in Japan” decal.

This is a really well-made instrument that plays and sound great!

Also, what's important to you may not be important to someone else. For example, you may say, "I don't care what it looks like as long as it plays or sounds well." Another person may say, "Body cosmetics are very important to me so tell me about every scratch, nick and blemish." So, please ask the questions that are most important to you. If you ask they will be answered. They are free and there's no limit. Additional photos can also be made available.
