FENDER SAID
The Made in Japan Hybrid II 2026 Collection Stratocaster Satin Metallic is based on the acclaimed Made in Japan Hybrid II series, which combines classic vintage-inspired aesthetics with versatile modern specifications suited to virtually any player or musical style. For 2026, this special limited-edition model introduces a distinctive new look available exclusively for this collection.
Featuring a Satin Finish as its defining characteristic, this model applies a satin treatment not only to the neck but also to the body. Thanks to the exceptional precision of Japanese finishing techniques, the result is a beautifully refined appearance with outstanding texture and color depth.
The Matte Aero Blue, Matte Inferno Red, Matte Phantom Black, and Matte Champagne Mirage finishes showcase a sophisticated Satin Metallic Finish inspired by contemporary industrial design, including modern automobiles and high-end technology products. The subtle metallic sheen softly reflects light, accentuating the guitar’s contours while creating an understated sense of elegance and premium quality.
The guitar features Fender’s renowned alder body paired with newly designed Hybrid II Custom Voiced Single-Coil pickups, delivering a versatile and expressive tonal character. Additional premium specifications include a two-point tremolo system with vintage-style saddles, vintage locking tuners, a Modern “C” neck profile with a satin finish, a 9.5-inch-radius fingerboard, and narrow-tall frets, all contributing to smooth and comfortable playability.
Blending the modern performance and traditional character that define the Hybrid II series, this model represents a fresh and compelling interpretation of the Stratocaster.
The Made in Japan Hybrid II 2026 Collection Stratocaster Satin Metallic is a limited-production model available exclusively for 2026.
