2006-2008 (Crafted In Japan “S” serial #) Fender ST57 TX in a 2 tone sunburst finish. This was one of the higher level guitars to come out of the Fender factory in Japan with an alder body and USA Texas Special pickups. It is super clean and in excellent overall condition as shown in the photos. There are a few small impressions on the top of the body, most noticeably the 2 that are shown in photo #7. They are very small dents in the finish that are almost unnoticeable and the poly has not chipped away. On the bottom edge of the body just below the input jack there is one dent/chip about the size of a pencil eraser that has been touched up. Due to its location and color it is out of sight and can barely be seen as shown in photo #8. The back of the neck has a spot where there is a few hairline surface scratches but they cannot be felt while playing and are minor as shown in photo #17. These are the only 3 notable flaws worth mentioning and the rest of the guitar is in super clean condition for its age. The frets are in awesome condition as shown in photo # 18 as this instrument has had very little play time. The hardware has nice subtle natural aging and patina. The guitar looks and plays fantastic and embodies the expertly crafted Japanese version of this iconic vintage 1957 Stratocaster. It has a fresh set up with low action and D’Addario NYXL 10-46 strings. These are amazing instruments right out of the factory but are a perfect candidate to tastefully modify its few weak points with modern upgrades to bring it to another level. ELECTRONICS – The original 1-ply white pickguard is in very good overall condition with only light marks from picking and playing the instrument. It has slightly yellowed over time to more of a parchment color that enhances the vintage vibe of the guitar. One of the well known weak points of these Japanese guitars is that the electronics and pickups are substandard compared to the rest of the construction quality and craftsmanship of the instrument. The original pickguard has been rebuilt with all top quality components and vintage cloth push back wire. The pickups used in this guitar are appropriately the new Fender Pure Vintage ‘57 pickups and they sound incredible. Surprisingly there is very little info or fanfare for these pickups online. I have had Fender Pure Vintage ‘59 and ‘65 pickups in the past as well as Custom Shop ‘69 pickups and these ’57s are some of the best yet from Fender. They are clean and glassy yet break up perfectly with some overdrive or distortion. The original Texas Special pickups that came in this guitar sound really good, but these PV ’57s are amazing and the perfect upgrade for this model. The pickup covers, knobs, switch tip, and tremolo tip have been replaced with a Fender aged white accessory kit to contrast the color of the original pickguard. Other parts used for the pickguard rebuild include CTS 250k pots, Fender .05uf 150 V.D.C tone cap, Oak Grigsby 5-way switch, and a Switchcraft #11 mono 1/4” input jack. See photos #19 & #20 for photos of the underside of the guard. The pickguard is also wired with the Lindy Fralin blender wiring schematic. In my opinion it is the single best Strat mod and all of my 3 pickup guitars are wired this way. The middle tone knob is the master tone control for the instrument and the bottom tone knob is a CTS blender pot that blends in a typically unused pickup for the setting on the 5-way switch for an almost infinite color palette of tones. Some guitars have a toggle switch wired in to achieve a similar effect but with the toggle switch the additional pickup is either off or on. With the blender mod you get to fade in the additional pickup for a slight change in tone, completely mixing in the additional pickup, or somewhere in between. See photo #23 for more details on the blender wiring mod. Overall the pickguard upgrade greatly enhances the look, sound, and quality of this guitar by adding the modern day appointments that come on much higher priced boutique instruments. TREMOLO – Another weak point of the Japanese Stratocasters is the quality of the tremolo system. Some Strats are built with a steel block for the tremolo while other models have a cheaper die cast block that can reduce the quality of the sound output in many ways. The ST57-TX model was equipped with the cheaper die cast block from the factory. The tremolo system has been rebuilt using a new Fender base plate, Callaham steel block, Callaham stainless steel Pop-In tremolo arm, and modern aged nickel block saddles. The updated and improved tremolo setup greatly increases the sustain, resonance, and tone of the guitar. It has a very fluid feel and also has much improved tuning stability. A new Fender aged butterfly style string tree with a spacer has been installed to improve the B and high E string staying in tune when using the tremolo. The original string tree has no spacer and the angle off of the nut is too steep causing the B and high E string to easily go out of tune when using the trem. All in all this is a killer guitar that has been selectively and tastefully upgraded with premium quality parts that bring it to a much higher level with a modern boutique feel and classic vintage sound. As these guitars get older they are getting harder to find in such good condition. Includes the original Fender gig bag and warranty pamphlet as shown in photo #22. The listing also includes the original knobs, string tree, pots & wiring harness, 5-way switch & tip, input jack, tremolo base plate, die cast tremolo block, and Fender stamped saddles as shown in photo #21. The tremolo arm that came with the guitar does not appear to be original but will be included in with the original parts as well. The original parts will be shipped separately from the guitar.
