Seller's description

This is the Fender Japan “PRO-FEEL” Series STR-850LS, packed with high-end specifications and components throughout. The “PRO-FEEL” series, released around 1990, features a lightweight ash body with a heel-cut joint, a maple neck, a rosewood fingerboard, Lace Sensor Silver 2 and Lace Sensor Blue pickups, Volume/Tone/Mid Boost controls, a 5-way selector switch, and an American Standard tremolo (with an inch-sized tremolo arm and set screws). Alongside the medium-scale STM, the long-scale STR model incorporated cutting-edge specifications of the 1990s and remains a model with specs that hold up even today. The back panel is missing, and the finish has taken on a purplish hue due to age. There are signs of wear (such as discoloration, dents, scratches, scuffs, playing marks, picking marks, buckle marks, neck ring marks, indentations from the endpin, and tarnish, pitting, or rust on metal parts and screws, among other cosmetic damage). Set up upon arrival (cleaning, string replacement, truss rod adjustment, octave adjustment, and action adjustment). The frets are at a height suitable for playing, and the truss rod can be adjusted in both directions (tightening and loosening); it has been verified to function properly within a range of ±60°. Condition Grade: B+: Some scratches are present, but the instrument is suitable for normal use.
