Made by the Fujigen factory in early 1991, the ST57-500 model was the base model '57 reissue from Fender Japan.
Basswood body with a maple neck shaped with the classic '57 slim C neck profile (7.25" radius, 43mm nut, 648mm scale length), it weighs 3.5kg's. Seems all original (except for a new bone nut) with a factory 5-way switch, Japanese ST-VINTAGE single coils, a die-cast bridge, vintage style tuners and Fender stamped saddles.
Lightly used condition for an early 1990's build as pictured with only a few dings/bumps as pictured. The finish is clean and there are no breaks or repairs. Given a full setup and service prior to listing including a fret polish and truss adjustment, plenty of life in the frets and a nice straight neck with low action.
