'25 MIJ FSRs

[JSett]

I like the look but that shade of 'gold' plating they've opted for looks really cheap. Doing hardware in that 24k gold always looks kinda gaudy compared to a slightly muted 18-22k. In my opinion, of course.



I like the black Mustang. Pop a parchment guard on and you have full tuxedo.

Do those have nitro finishes?! That jag the black one and the LPB one are both awesome

[unreal77]

gold not for me.

[andy_tchp]

Hideous.

gold not for me.

The black and gold one, yeah, no I’m not too big a fan either. I didn’t see those until just now actually. I was talking about the ones on pg. 2. The black B&B Jazzmaster and Jaguar look so sick

[Mechanical Birds]

Do those come with nitro finishes?

[mediocreplayer]

Gold

Do those come with nitro finishes?

I highly doubt it.

Do those come with nitro finishes?

I’m seeing “gloss urethane” on the specs on Fender Japan’s site

Do those come with nitro finishes?

Those from the "Heritage Line" normally do.

EDIT: https://jp.fender.com/products/made-in- ... ss-limited
click on "スペック" and you see the spec-sheet, with "gloss lacquer".

I somehow totally missed these. Basically the perfect combo for me, if only it was nitro and a little more in the green spectrum of OTM. Needs just a hit more yellow in my opinion.

I could see how it’s a bit too lake placid blue

Funny as the Fender Japan OTM 20 years ago was a super vivid/bright version compared to AVRI/65/Vintage.

It’s so insane that a brand new MIJ costs ~$1,000 and the Vinteras are like $1500 now

Goddamn I wish I had money I’d be buying like 4 of those guitars right now

I assumed it was when I first saw the picture!

Agreed. I've had 2 of the old 90s/00s OTM Jags and they were very vivid/obvious. Maybe they're greener in real life, turquoises are notoriously hard to photograph because of actual science.
