The Made in Japan Limited Raw Ash model uses precious ash wood for the body and features an open-pore finish, where a thin coating is applied without filling the wood pores, further highlighting the distinct wood grain.

This is a limited-edition Japanese-made product that allows you to feel the distinctive wood grain of ash wood through its texture.

Based on the hugely popular Made in Japan Hybrid II series, this model features modified pickups and frets, making it ideal for players who prefer a wider range of sounds. The open-pore finish, satin-finish neck, medium jumbo frets, and 9.5-inch radius fingerboard on a Modern “C” shaped maple neck ensure comfortable playability, even during extended playing sessions.

Furthermore, by using US-made Fender pickups in all models, you can obtain the rich, deep, and distinctive single-coil sound characteristic of Fender guitars.
