The Fender Made in Japan Limited International Color Stratocaster offers a nostalgic glimpse into the brand's history with its rare and beloved International Color Series. This iconic collection, originally released over 40 years ago for just one year, is now back and better than ever.

Originally released in 1981, the International Color Series boasts a 70s-inspired design and a stunning selection of exotic colors named after alluring destinations around the world. Highly sought after by collectors for their unique beauty and rarity, these guitars are now available in a limited edition run that combines the iconic vintage Fender look with exceptional Made in Japan craftsmanship. This collection truly represents a transcontinental treasure.

Transforming from the conventional design, these guitars proudly feature basswood bodies that produce rich tones, 9.5" radius maple or rosewood fingerboards and medium jumbo frets perfect for daring musicians. The '70s "U" shaped neck is identical to its predecessor, equipped with a "Bullet" style truss rod nut, three-bolt neck plate with Micro-Tilt mechanism, "F" Stamped tuners and even the headstock face bears its unique serial number. The classic single-coil Strat pickups and synchronized tremolo system deliver the renowned Fender sound and playability.

Featuring a vintage Fender tone and a stylish retro design, the Made in Japan International Color Stratocaster offers exceptional playability and a supremely comfortable playing experience with select refinements.
