Replaces ST72
Replaced by Made in Japan Traditional '70s Stratocaster (First Series)
FENDER SAYS
Fender Japan Exclusive Series is a new lineup of Made in Japan that replaces the "Fender Japan" brand, which has been discontinued due to the change in distributor in April 2015. With quality of conviction that is made only in Japan, this has inherited the specification of the old model "Fender Japan ST72".
