As the owner of an E series 84-87 Japan Strat, I was wondering how the new 2013 MIJ strats compared. Where are they made and to what spec. I was looking at the 70's reissue in particular. Any info would be very much appreciated. Usually I'd go try one out first but can't seem to find a store in Wales with any in stock.

Thanks
Paul

I think you have to buy them from Japan as Fender Japan dont allow exports as such .Some store only sell "used " FJ's.I bought my Tele "used " from Ishibashi and it was like brand new.Ebay have several sellers including Ishibashi who I have dealt with several timesbut dont forget to add 30% to the total cost ,guitar and postage .I just got a loaded Fender Japan ST75HS body from a ebay shop .Fender USA do sell some Japanese Fenders to anyone .The 62 Tele is one thats always listed and some Mustangs ,jagstangs and Jaguars .

I recently saw a few 72 Reisues on a website here in the UK. I suppose I could just order one and try it. If the return policy is ok then I have nothing to lose. I would just like to hear some feedback from people on hare before I go and order one.
