Personal Thoughts:
This MIJ Limited Strat in Sahara Taupe is a brilliant nod to Fender’s early '80s International Color series—updated with smooth modern playability and vintage charm. The finish is subtle yet striking, offering something a little different to your usual sunbursts and blondes.
It’s lightweight, well-balanced, and feels immediately comfortable thanks to the modern C-shaped neck and 9.5” radius maple board. The vintage-style pickups bring out all that Stratty sparkle, with glassy cleans and smooth breakup in the in-between positions. Whether you're after classic tones or looking to add a uniquely finished Strat to your lineup, this one delivers.
Condition Report:
In mint condition with no marks, dings, or signs of use. The frets are immaculate, the neck is smooth and fast, and all electronics are working flawlessly. Comes with a brand new Fender tolex hard case for safe transport and storage. A fantastic Strat with a rare finish and modern reliability.
