Japanese guitars are often skilfully built and often have a novel feature or two that weren't on the original model. This Fender Japan SE '62 Telecaster Bound in Lake Placid Blue, for instance, has a maple fretboard on its maple neck. Other than that, the Japanese Fenders are accurately modelled after the American originals. This particular model has a C-shaped neck, and a vintage-style bridge with three saddles. It's so vintage-correct that even the logo and the routing underneath the pickguard are completely accurate.

Japanese Fenders, in this case made by the Dyna Gakki factory, are high-end instruments that were never meant to travel abroad. These hand-built guitars were made for the Japanese market only, yet are highly coveted all over the world for their combination of vintage design, modern innovation and high-quality finish. They offer the same build quality as the professional Fender American Standard models at a very reasonable price.
