In 2016 or so Fender Japan launched the Japan Exclusive Range. This seems like a bit of marketing hype, in that the models
are alledged to be produced for the domestic market only, but strangely lots of western dealers have some. This series
includes some Aerodyne strats the standard scale models retailing at around £770. There appear to be 4 models the
