Fender MIJ Trad 50s Strat, with Vintera Modified 50s Strat neck, black, made 2022. The MIJ Trad series are the spiritual successors of the Fender Japan reissue models of late last century. It's a no-nonsense vintage style Strat, with a handy set of crisp 50s-style single coils and a classic aesthetic. The neck has come from a Vintera Modified 50s Strat, so it's a modern-C type profile with a 9.5" radius board. In a nice touch, the back of the neck is finished in satin for slick movement, while the board and headstock are wearing gloss, which looks great and will wear a bit slower. Tone wise, it's definitely a Strat: chimey top end, angular mids and an understated, round bass response, all with heaps of attack and clarity. This will tick a lot of boxes for the right player.
