This year marks the 70th anniversary of the birth of the Stratocaster, and two new signature models from Char, a guitarist who has continued to color the Japanese music scene for a long time, will be released. Regarding his signature model, Char said, “I am proud to have my Stratocaster, my main guitar, made in Japan, as a “Made in Japan” guitarist. I can only believe that I was able to make this guitar because of the love of the people who were involved in making it and the people who made it.I also feel that it has been completed to such a degree that it makes a great sound just by playing it. ” “Char Stratocaster (R) Burgundy” is a signature model made in Japan based on the 1959 Stratocaster, the iconic guitar that represents the artist’s career. The eye-catching matching head coloring uses the original color “Char Burgundy”, which reproduces the burgundy mist metallic that has softened over time. The pickup, which is the key to the sound, is equipped with the Char Original Single Coil Stratocaster (R), which was developed to reproduce Char’s warm and thick tone. The neck, which determines playability, has a characteristic grip that is thin at the low frets and thick at the high frets. The neck pocket is designed deeper than usual in order to reproduce the loose tension feeling of the actual machine, which is a factor that greatly affects sound and playability. This allows you to play with a light touch even at high string heights, like Char himself, and create richer overtones. Considering the dynamic arming of Char, we have increased the variable width by designing the tremolo block cavity wider than standard. A limited edition model “Limited Char Stratocaster(R)︎ Burgundy” will also be released at the same time. It comes with a numbered neck plate and is finished with nitrocellulose lacquer. We are particular about the wood we use, and the maple and rosewood for the neck, and the alder for the body, are all carefully selected based on the actual machine. A hard case and a signed certificate are also included, making it a premium product. Char Stratocaster Burgundy release commemorative event will be held!
