Fender Made in Japan Limited Active Modern Stratocaster RW, Black Overview
The Fender Made in Japan Limited Active Modern Stratocaster RW is a refined take on a classic design, blending traditional Strat tone with modern versatility. Designed for modern playing styles, it keeps the iconic look intact while adding an onboard Turbo Tone circuit for expanded tonal range. With three premium vintage-style single-coil pickups, it delivers everything from glassy cleans and crisp rhythms to cutting lead tones, making it a great fit for players who want that unmistakable Strat voice with added flexibility on tap.
An alder body provides balanced resonance and familiar Fender response, while the maple neck and rosewood fingerboard offer a smooth, comfortable feel. The compound 9.5" to 14" radius makes chord work feel natural at the lower end and opens up for cleaner bends and faster playing higher up the neck. Medium jumbo frets and a modern C profile keep things quick and controlled, while the 2-point tremolo and locking tuners help maintain tuning stability through regular use. It's an instrument built for recording, rehearsing and gigging.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionClassic Strat tone with added range
This Limited Active Modern Stratocaster stays true to the core Strat formula while expanding what it can do. The alder body delivers the balanced tone and response players expect, and the Black finish gives it a timeless look. It feels familiar straight away, but the addition of the active Turbo Tone boost and modern hardware make it far more adaptable for players who need one guitar to cover multiple styles and situations.
SSS pickup clarity and definition
Equipped with three premium vintage-style late '60s single-coil pickups, this Strat delivers the chime, sparkle, and articulation that define the model. Clean tones remain bright and detailed, while driven sounds retain clarity for chords and melodic lines. The five-way switching layout provides a wide range of usable tones, from sharp bridge bite to warm neck sounds, with those classic in-between positions offering that unmistakable Strat quack.
Turbo Tone boost for extra presence
The onboard Turbo Tone circuit, activated via the push/push master volume control, adds an active boost to your signal when needed. This gives you more output, sustain, and thickness without changing guitars or relying on external pedals. It's especially useful for stepping forward in a mix or pushing your amp into a more driven response, making it a practical addition for live use where a fast, simple, and reliable boost option can be extremely handy!
Designed for smooth, stable performance
The compound radius neck provides a comfortable feel across the entire fretboard, making it easy to move between chord work and lead playing. Lower frets feel natural for rhythm, while the flatter upper register supports cleaner bends and faster runs. A 2-point synchronized tremolo offers smooth, controlled movement for expressive playing, and locking tuners help keep everything stable. Combined with Fender Japan's legendary build quality, it's a reliable choice for regular use.
