With performances in 31 countries and participation in many of the world's largest music festivals including Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival under their belt, they have captivated fans worldwide with their unique sound and strong stage presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Takashi Kato Stratocaster® guitar is modeled after the bandʼs guitarist, Takashi Kato's '65 Stratocaster, also affectionally named \"Ryuboku (Driftwood),\" which he has used as his main guitar throughout his career. Kato, who is well versed in vintage Strats, has created this guitar with the hope that many guitarists will get the chance to experience its vintage-style charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Takashi Kato Stratocaster® features an original Paradise Blue color, a unique color created to match Katoʼs own Lake Placid Blue vintage Stratocaster which color deepened with age with added metallic finish. The nitrocellulose lacquer topcoat has been kept to a minimum, allowing for a vintage look and sound. The neck, profiled from Katoʼs own guitar, faithfully reproduces the original vintage 1965 \"C\" shape, while the narrow-tall frets provide smooth playability. This guitar also comes with three specially developed Custom Wired Vintage Style Single-Coil pickups with special wiring that successfully produce rich overtones and edge akin to hand-wound pickups.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fender","offers":[{"title":"Paradise Blue \/ Rosewood \/ Alder","offer_id":41565077078103,"sku":"5600602302","price":237600.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0604\/9139\/9255\/files\/5600602302_fen_ins_frt_1_rr.png?v=1742741729","url":"https:\/\/jp.fender.com\/en\/products\/takashi-kato-stratocaster","provider":"Fender","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
