I was at a guitar show this sunday and found this fender strap, I bought it because I never seen this color fender strap? Its Bright Orange and green with purple trim. I really like it and have a matching strap for each fender I have, so this one is a bit of a weirdo? anyone ever seen one like it or have one like it?

That was my first thought, but the green headstocks don't jive with that. The only two white ones are very different colors and wouldn't turn green.

My guess: It's from a special Japan model. They have more varieties than we do here, and might very well produce a special one just for a specific model.

So yes, I think it's rare, but I also think it's so ugly that it should be killed with fire. It's almost, but not quite, ugly enough to be a conversation piece.

Arth was closer to the truth...right up until that turn towards evil. The guy I got my 62 Vintage Reissue Domestic Japan market Stratocaster from had this very strap (came with the guitar). I used to give him crap about it when he would send photos to me when playing gigs over there. I am thinking this was the 90's, and Japan certainly has some very different ideas about colors and what goes with what than us more conservative Americans. He said they had many more colors available over there than they do here in the States. They might be rare here but not over there. Still all in all a cool piece of Fender History.

FWIW
