Absolutely love the color and the matching headstock, especially paired with the maple fretboard and topped of with that silver pickguard. I can easily see why you had to get it Tomo-san, not least because of you recent episode on G.A.S. It’s just a perfect fit in relation to your old duo sonics, so happy you like it and it does indeed sound amazing acoustically! Thank you kindly for always being such a genuine and positive source of inspiration for the love of guitar and music. Always a pleasure to take part in watching your videos, and your words quite often make a heartfelt impact of positive energy. You are really a star in the heavens Tomo!💖💖
Great to hear that. This guitar is very special! Yes, you are right! Right after I made my G.A.S. video! This one sounds so great! You're very welcome! Thank you so much!
Looking at the enthusiasm on unboxing a guitar by a master, who has got numerous ones already.. still the happiness in ur eyes like a kid opening up a present.. worth watching.. u r made for guitars!!! I ve been tempted to buy a new guitar myself..only thing stopping me is that i am a beginner.. i already got an old acoustic one.. now stuck between acoustic or hollow body blues guitar.. wish me luck :)
Thanks for sharing, Tomo! I never used to like matching headstocks, but recently I am liking them more. Your Limited Edition Strat is a BEAUTE!! It sounds amazing even acoustically.
I have a japanese stratocaster 19 84 . In the same colour so I love it very much indeed . I keep looking at a telecaster it's very hard to resist so many beautiful instruments .
Super cool finish and I love the scratch plate. I, also, wanted to let you know that you finally inspired me to buy a Duo Sonic of my own and, of all my guitars, it may be the most fun to play. Thank you.
I'm happy you could get your dream guitar! I didn't know we could use those wiring pliers for staples!! I have the same tool on my desk and have been pulling the staples out by hand. I'm certain they saw your name and shipped the best one!
Sometimes you gotta jump on a guitar you know is going to make you happy, especially if you know it's limited or scarce. That's a beautiful shade of blue, kind of a dark periwinkle, at least on my TV it is.
I have said that. I also regretted it heavily. When I began to sell some of them. I saw some nice ones and I miss some of them sometimes. If I wasn’t strapped for cash so badly back then, I would definitely wouldn’t have sold them. Although actually several that I had, or Floyd rose, equip the guitars, and those things were such a pain in the butt to maintain and keep in tune because it felt like they needed a new set up every time I would put it on the rack for a few weeks.
Sweet. I bought my dream guitar a few weeks ago but didn’t know it was my dream guitar until I unboxed it. It’s a Heritage H-535 with Symore Duncan Seth Lover pickups and the low action is easy on my 60 year old hands. I still love my Strats, I have 3 of them. I too love the soft “V” I have a hardtail Strat with that great chunky no taper neck. Thanks again Tomo.
@@TomoFujitaMusic I had a ‘78 when I was in high school I loved it, I’ve heard some people don’t like the 3 screw neck. Unfortunately it was stolen in ‘85. I always wanted another one, so last year Sweetwater had an exclusive run of 12 hardtails based on the American Original Series. They made it a hardtail and added custom shop fat 50s. They sound different then a tremolo Strat, but Neil Rodgers and Robert Cray like um and I believe Clapton’s brownie was a hardtail. If you raise the action they make great slide guitars.
Congrats Tomo!! Very nice guitar!! Nice shade of 'Lake Placid Blue'!! I am addicted to sunburst. So many colors, so many patterns. My fave is 3 color 60's Fender Strat! But there are many many more. No 2 are the same!! 8) Thanks, --gary
Nice guitar Tomo! I think that guitars are like artwork. If they inspire you, they worth it. Of course we have to be reasonably prudent financially, then afford the instrument.
@@TomoFujitaMusic you certainly have influenced many guitarists over the years, and I've been a fan of your instruction and advice for a couple of decades now. I really do need to practice more though. Lol!
That baby rings and has a beautiful unplugged tone. The color is gorgeous. Painted headstock is a nice touch. Those chords you were playing, the guitar responded with a beautiful sound. I want to hear it amped up. I wonder if noiseless pickups sound as good as vintage Strat pickups.
Hello Professor Tomo, hope you and Family are doing okay. Very gutsy but very nice COLOR! Guitar Family is STILL growing! Enjoy Your New Axe to the MAX!
I got the Squier VI that looks exactly like that, color wise. Clearly Fender decided it was blue guitar month so they did a run of them. My VI has the blue headstock as well, from Chicago Music Exchange.
@@TomoFujitaMusic will be watching to hear. BTW Your daughter is beautiful. Does she also have the guitar bug. My beautiful daughter is 35 years and has No interest 😕. A segment on "how to pass on the music legacy" would be interesting. I am working on the grandkids to take your course.
I love how you say "you have to be careful, don't buy too many guitars" (11:32) in an unboxing video and then go on to talk about Cyclone that you bought.
Wow that guitar really sings unplugged. I think you might have a very good guitar. As for GAS, I think that as long as my gear purchases don’t create a problem in other areas of my life then it’s all good.
I love the HER series. When i replenish some savings it will be the first of two guitars that i grab.. your very talented and fortunit, enjoy and keep on playing..
I love how an unboxing directly from Fender naturally turns into actual playing and a song analysis before the video is over. Stay awesome, Tomo-san! Much love and peace! How's the weight?
Thank you so much! This guitar was set up so great! Especially the tremolo bridge. So good! I need to imitate this (for other guitar) Yes. I bought this at Fender online store (first time!) Very light!
I really do like that guitar. I saw it in an ad the other day. If there was any minor critique, I wish there was a nice inlay to tie the headstock color to the body. But that's a minor critique.
So cool Mr. Fujita, by the way... I've been following you on Instagram months ago. Awesome guitar skills. Oh and your Blue Stratocaster is my Favorite and most Favorite Fender Stratocaster of all. God bless you, Sir Tomo. You are such an inspiration. Sending Love from the Philippines. 💙💙💙🎸🎸🎸
I love that Cyclone! I was hoping Fender would bring back the Cyclone after they brought back the Squier Cyclones, but it's not looking like that'll happen.
Tomo, you hit me with that box. Ouch! Purple guitar and matching headstock. Order one more. Good sound acoustically is a good clue to a guitar's sound electrically.
@@TomoFujitaMusic Hi I bought the Perussian Blue Ibanez a couple weeks ago. So far love it and the neck is beautiful. Flawlessly made. Needed a real set up beyond factory and the place purchased from who say they adjust things. After a professional setup. I believe it will be my go to guitar.
I am an old guitar addict,,,cannot get rid of guitars, just buy more,,,,how do hou decide which ones to keep? And, what do you do with the ones you decide to let go?
It's so hard! If you can keep all, then do it! I am getting old so I need to decide my priory with my time so any guitars that I don't play that often. I let those go. I am trying this very hard! This way more time with my wife!
Another couple of strats are on my wishlist. I’ll have to check out the specs though , since you are excited about the neck. What’s the profile of that neck?
The new guitar. Wow beauty!! Isn't it a special guitar for the Lady Artist names H.E.R.?? Either way the setup person saw your name I'm sure and wanted to be sure it comes to you perfect!!
What do I think about what you did? I had to laugh 😁 I saw your video about G.A.S. and within 6 hours bought another amplifier. I had to have it. Just like you had to have that guitar with the amazing colour. Unplugged it rings like a bell. I think you got a good one. Very nice.
Picked up my dream guitar last year. All original 1989 Fender Stratocaster Plus Deluxe. It's my retirement plan. Hardly play it and it gets new strings and fretboard treated every 6 months.
@@TomoFujitaMusic Thank you. Mine has Natural finish and is in excellent condition. Refuse to use a pick on this one, no scratches on the guitar and only 1 on the case.
That thing is beautiful. I wish they would put the truss rod adjustment in the headstock rather than the heel though. Price you pay for a painted headstock I guess. Thanks for sharing Tomo!
Am I seeing things or do you have to remove the neck to adjust the truss rod? I didn’t see an adjustment nut at the heel joint and the area they usually put it on modern strats was solid painted on the headstock. About Gear Acquisition: Don’t feel bad. I bought one of the not so limited HM Strats because I just love the colors and aesthetics of 80’s Super Strats and I don’t even know how to play heavy metal; don’t have any metal effects pedals or amps either lol
The gold is left over lacquer (I had no idea what it was) :( they do not remove all of it, apparently. I did a little researching and tried to remove it, because i did not want it on my frets. Putting a knife to a $1800 guitar is something no one should have to do. I did not want to, but of course, I did. If anyone is going to mess my stuff up, it will be and not Guitar Center. A year after finding out what it was, I only have 4 frets done lol Pretty sad they allow this.
Beautiful blue marlin paint job Tomo Sensei. I checked Sweetwater and Fender websites and the HER limited edition Strat is not available yet. Would love to hear it plugged in and how the trem is set up. Myself, I just got a Shijie TLV Pro T-style. I really like it. My wife, not so much. “You have too many toys!”😂 #GAS
Yes! This color is so gorgeous! I bought this at Fender website. I could buy it with my credit card! Try it! I just did the same day Fender sent me email newsletter. I will do that this week. So next week you will see it. Which amp? Awesome! Listen het!
Hi, Tomo. Unpacking a new guitar always leaves an exciting impression, because you are afraid of being deceived in your expectations. However, after you are amazed by its beautiful appearance, and then by its bright sound, you experience pleasure and feel really happy ... Congratulations! Beautiful guitar. Great sound. It remains only to have fun and enjoy it ... P.S. The artist was asked: - What is your most beautiful painting? - The one I haven't drawn yet. ...)) ;)
Hello mister Tomo, great looking & sounding guitar!!! I hope that you won't mind my question - why the bridge on the other guitar (also BEAUTIFUL Fender Cyclone), makes such an angle? Looks like strings are pulling your bridge upwards -, away from the body? ( Clearly my English is not very good, but I hope that it's good enough & that you will be able to understand me. Greetings from Serbia ! )

Thanks so much!
Lovely guitar Tomo and such a very beautiful colour. The matching headstock is classy! Enjoy! Enjoy! Enjoy!

Love the color, and the fact that they painted the headstock as well. I'm usually not a big fan of strats personally, but that looks amazing 😀
Do you own any strat?

I have too many guitars: Said no guitarist ever

@@TomoFujitaMusic Would love to hear HER on a small box Fender like a Princeton.
I been wanting that guitar
Great one!
Hi, Tomo.
Unpacking a new guitar always leaves an exciting impression, because you are afraid of being deceived in your expectations. However, after you are amazed by its beautiful appearance, and then by its bright sound, you experience pleasure and feel really happy ...
Congratulations! Beautiful guitar. Great sound. It remains only to have fun and enjoy it ...
P.S. The artist was asked:
- What is your most beautiful painting?
- The one I haven't drawn yet. ...)) ;)
Thanks for sharing. Thank you so much!
Hello mister Tomo, great looking & sounding guitar!!! I hope that you won't mind my question - why the bridge on the other guitar (also BEAUTIFUL Fender Cyclone), makes such an angle? Looks like strings are pulling your bridge upwards -, away from the body? ( Clearly my English is not very good, but I hope that it's good enough & that you will be able to understand me. Greetings from Serbia ! )
Wow! You were looking so carefully! I was setting it like what Jeff Beck would do... Thank you! Yes!
@@TomoFujitaMusic Thank you so much for your reply !!! I really appreciate it !
Very nice good looking stratocaster
Thank you!
