The Limited Char Stratocaster® in Burgundy Mist Metallic is a tribute to the legendary Japanese rock guitarist Char. It faithfully recreates his iconic 1959 Stratocaster® with painstaking attention to detail. The standout matching headstock is finished in Char Burgundy, an aged metallic burgundy mist color unique to this model. The Char Original Single Coil Stratocaster® pickups deliver his signature warm and full - bodied tone. The neck is expertly shaped - thin at the low frets for smooth playing and thicker at the high frets for a firm grip. The neck pocket is set deeper to replicate the loose string tension of Char’s original guitar, enabling easy playability even at higher string heights. The widened tremolo cavity can accommodate Char’s dynamic arming style, offering greater range and responsiveness. Finished in nitrocellulose lacquer, this limited - edition model has a numbered neck plate and is crafted from hand - selected alder, maple, and rosewood to match the original. Specifications include a Stratocaster® body shape, alder body material, gloss polyester body finish, 'C' shape neck profile, rosewood fretboard, 7.25' (184.1 mm) fretboard radius, 25.5' (64.77 cm) scale length, 21 vintage frets, black pearloid dot - 7mm fretboard inlays, Char Original Single Coil Stratocaster® pickups, 6 - Saddle Pure Vintage Synchronized Tremolo bridge, 1 - Ply Parchment pickguard, nickel plated steel strings (.009 -.042 gauges), Pure Vintage Single Line 'Fender Deluxe' tuning machines, nickel/chrome hardware finish, and comes with a deluxe gig bag.
Using this Fender Japan Char Stratocaster is a breeze. Just plug it into your amplifier, tune it up with the tuning machines, and start playing. You'll notice the smooth playability right away, thanks to the well - shaped neck. When you're using the tremolo arm, move it gently to get the desired pitch changes. Remember to keep the guitar in a dry and temperature - stable environment. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or extreme humidity for long periods. Clean the strings regularly with a soft cloth to keep the tone clear. You can also use a mild guitar polish on the body to maintain its shine. If you're not using the guitar for a while, loosen the strings a bit to relieve stress on the neck. And always store it in the provided deluxe gig bag to protect it from scratches and bumps.
