On August, 2023, Fender announced the new “Made in Japan Heritage Official Shop Exclusive Collection,” which included the model 5371502303.

FENDER SAID
New series in pursuit of the supreme playing experience to give players!
Made in Japan Heritage is a series that pursues the supreme playing experience that vintage musical instruments give to players.
Famous as a master builder in the Fender Custom Shop, it has been adopted by the supervision of Mark Kendrick, who boasts a deep knowledge of vintage instruments, and is packed with specs that fascinate vintage fans.
All models in the Heritage series are designed based on profiling data of USA products, and body shapes and neck shapes are also adopted according to the age.
The details of the cross-wire pickup, the setting and tone of the pickup, and the color reproducibility of the body have all been inherited from the Fender's legitimate lineage.
Made in Japan Heritage 50s Stratocaster has a lacquer finish on the ash body that increases the depth of color with the age of use.
A 7.25 ”-radius Soft“ V ”shape maple neck with 21 vintage-style frets, a 6-saddle vintage-style Synchronized Tremolo bridge, and a pickup specifically selected for the Heritage series, all of which make up this product. The specifications have been carefully selected to achieve classic playability and a sweet vintage tone.
Experience the unique playability and tasty tones of a Fender who has captivated many great musicians.
