The Made - in - Japan Junior Collection Stratocaster® is a great choice for entry - level players and young beginners. It features a 24 - inch scale and the classic Fender look. The shorter 24 - inch scale makes chord - pressing a breeze and eases the strain on your fingers. The compact body, scaled down to about 94%, along with a new body cavity design, results in a lighter guitar for better playability. The all - new Junior Collection Modified Single Coil Stratocaster® pickups offer that bright Fender Stratocaster® tone. Vintage - type tuners and a two - point tremolo bridge with vintage - style saddles ensure stable tuning. Specifications include a Stratocaster® body shape made of basswood with a satin polyester finish, a modern 'C' neck profile, a maple fretboard with a 9.5' (241 mm) radius, 22 narrow tall frets, black dot inlays, Junior Collection Modified Single Coil Stratocaster® pickups at the bridge, middle, and neck, a 2 - point synchronized tremolo with vintage - style stamped steel saddles, a 3 - ply eggshell pickguard, nickel - plated steel strings (.009 -.042 gauges), vintage - style tuning machines, nickel/chrome hardware finish, and it comes with a gig bag.
Using your Fender Japan Junior Collection Stratocaster Electric Guitar is easy. First, take it out of the gig bag gently. Plug it into an amplifier using a suitable cable. Start by strumming some simple chords. The shorter 24 - inch scale makes it easier to reach different frets. When you're done playing, put it back in the gig bag to protect it from dust and scratches. Keep the guitar in a dry and cool place to prevent the wood from warping. Clean the strings regularly with a soft cloth to maintain their tone. If you need to adjust the tuning, use the vintage - style tuning machines carefully. Don't over - tighten the strings as it can damage the guitar. Check the bridge and pickups periodically to make sure they are in good condition.
