Fender Japan Standard Strat, shell pink, made in Japan 2010-11. What a great colour! I love this time of year for the delicious peaches and apricots, among other delights, and I feel this finish to be a perfect extension of that stonefruit-and-pool-parties aesthetic. It's in great shape too, there really is barely a mark on it. The Japan Standard line was sold in Japan only, taking the classic curves of the '62 style Strat but adding some modern touches like a 9.5 radius, satin finish neck and the 90s era decals. From a feel angle, this rules: light, lively and responsive, super agreeable neck, put together with care and attention... it just works. The tone is spanky, sparkly and effervescent on the top with a punchy and assured bass. Just peachy, really.
