ULTRA RARE 1985 Fender Japan PROTOTYPE / SAMPLE Stratocaster "Model 1" Boxer Vintage White Contemporary (Kahler Fulcrum Tremelo / Dragster Humbucker)

Vanborn Vintage Guitars presents ...

Feast your eyes on this Fender JAPAN Contemporary Series Stratocaster "Model 1" Boxer — early 1985 (late 1984)! Bearing the ultra rare "SAMPLE" neck pocket stamp, this beauty predates the actual 1985-1987 Fender Japan production run for export to the USA.

Combining (and testing) specs from the multiple production models in the series like the SF-451, ST-551, ST-556 & ST-557, it’s a fascinating snapshot of Fender’s evolution.

Originally Snow White, this guitar has aged gracefully into a vivid Aged White with authentic signs of heavy gigging: dings, scratches, lacquer cracks, and patina on the hardware The maple neck has that “baked” vintage vibe and the fretboard tells the story of countless hours played — no fake relic here, just pure history! Equipped with the Kahler Fulcrum Tremolo System and a fiery Dragster HOT Rod humbucker, it’s ready to roar
