Orange Stratocaster 68 model
This is very rare brand. I have heard that one of Osaka music store made a marketing plan to sell
This OEM guitar with Fernandes or Kawai. Probably, they didn't satisfy the replica of Fernandes.
Probably this is before Stone Logo FST (tokai made) era.
I have check the body construction. It is very similar with Fernandes FTS-70 series.
The difference from old Fernandes is the neck finger board.
Orange is 1P maple neck.
Well, Fernandes 76/77 made FST series have the 1P neck for short period.
I had a few, but the specifications are much closed to Tokai made stone
logo type.
From the catalog information, there were small head (62 model) and large head (68 model),
This is large head type like 68 model.
The body is probably Sen with 4.34Kg. The neck is Maple 1P, C shaped grip,
with 41.3 mm Nut width.
Very regretfully, the original PUs were damaged, So, I replaced them to
brand New Gotoh pick ups.
It is very good tone now!
Really good looking as 35 years old guitar.
I priced above, but for this guitar, I'm not sure I could sell or not.
Just Ask frist!
The last picture is showing both small and large head Orange Stratocaster!
