This is a fine example of the premium Jeff Beck inspired Strat - the premium model with the soft V neck, the DiMarzio bridge pick-up and the lovely nitro finish. If the complexity of the switching doesn't scare you off, embrace the reason it is the way it is and enjoy the spectrum of sounds at your fingertips. 
 
The series option for the neck and middle brings you creamy thickness without any mud, and the ability to colour that with the DiMarzio bite is addictive. You have the open Tele-in-the-middle option, and a range of searing reverse phase options - there is so much to go at. 
 
This is an obvious collector's choice - these don't come up for sale outside Japan very often. This was also sourced in Japan, but we have taken all the risk for you, and given it a thorough restoration for added peace of mind.
 
Thing is, you don't need to be a Jeff Beck fam, or even a MIJ fan to fall in love with this guitar - it is a great Strat with a huge versatility. You may concede that Fujigen were indeed making them better than the Americans in 1979. No wonder Fender are trying to sue everyone. Delayed rage...
 
These gold saddles are not original, and recently applied by the chap I bought this from (in Japan). I have the originals and they will be in the case pocket (period correct, slightly well used but functional hard case)
