For Sale: 1984 Fender MIJ Japan ST62-65 ’62 Stratocaster – Sunburst JV Serial w/ Fender HSC Up for sale is a 1984 Fender MIJ Japan ST62-65 ’62 Stratocaster in Sunburst, complete with a non-original Fender hard-shell case. This is a very cool early Fender Japan Strat built at the legendary FujiGen Gakki factory and carrying a sought-after JV serial number. These early Japanese Vintage series instruments are highly respected for their craftsmanship, vintage-inspired feel, and overall quality, and many players consider them among the best Fender reissues of the era. This one has all the classic early-’60s Strat appeal, with a great broken-in feel and the kind of honest wear that suits a 40-year-old guitar well. Condition This guitar is in very good vintage condition and I would rate it a solid 7.5/10. It shows light scratches, small dings throughout, honest wear consistent with age, and some natural tarnish to the hardware. Please review all photos carefully for the most accurate representation of condition. The tremolo arm is non-original. Everything else appears to be original. There are no cracks, breaks, or structural repairs. The neck is straight, the truss rod functions properly, and the frets show minimal wear. The guitar plays cleanly up and down the neck with low action and accurate intonation. It has also been recently professionally set up and is ready to go. The non-original Fender hard-shell case is included.
