Fender Japan Custom Edition

Fender Japan Custom Edition

 

　The Craft Section and Custom Edition Team, responsible for developing sought-after woods, special coloring, high-quality hardware, and more, enhanced possibilities across various fields at Fender Japan. Having originated from EXTRAD's Craft Section, this Custom Edition Team is believed to have been formed from 1986 to 1997, until Fender Japan's manufacturing shifted from Fujigen to Dyna Gakki.

　They produced numerous models, ranging from vintage-style models to those with special specifications, including anniversary models.
