Fender Made in Japan Hybrid II is a series that deserves to be called a “hybrid” – incorporating almighty modern specs while maintaining the vintage looks. Fender Japan, which has many fans around the world, has realised a product that combines playability and instrument tone that fits any guitarist or bassist regardless of rhythm / lead.
The Hybrid II Stratocaster is equipped with newly designed Hybrid II Custom Voiced Single Coil pickups in an alder body, two-point support tremolo system with a vintage style saddle. Vintage locking tuners, Modern “C” shape with satin finish neck, 9.5 inch radius fingerboard and narrow tall frets all make for smooth playability.
FEATURES
HYBRID II CUSTOM VOICED PICKUP
US Adopted “Hybrid II Custom Voiced Pickup”, which was jointly developed from scratch in cooperation with the product management team. Gain and tone balance are optimized to accommodate all genres of music.
MODERN C SHAPE NECK
Narrow tall frets are used for the 9.5-inch Radius Modern C-neck shape. The edges have been treated with extra effort to achieve smooth fret-to-fret movement.
ELECTRONICS
The standard Orange Drop capacitor, which gives an excellent attack feeling, is used as standard. The pure tone jack with four contacts is adopted for the jack part, and the connectivity that can be firmly fixed and the transmissibility of the electric signal are improved.
