This is a unique and somewhat scarce version of the HM Strat. Our research reveals that a small number of these were a Japan / US collaboration; essentially, US parts assembled in Japan in 1988-89. Notice the uncommon headstock logos and badging. Also, this particular instrument is outfitted with a Kahler tremolo system (as opposed to the later Floyd Rose )
The finish is the super rad 'Blackstone' which listed was a US offering, but the 'Made in Japan' and serial number label on the neck heel... more

The guitar for its age is in good condition, but has obvious normal traces of use, scratches, and dings here and there
