Hi Peter,
I have one of the 1996 Fender Japan Hank Marvin Signature Strat models. It's an excellent guitar & very well made, as you would expect from the Japanese. It is Ash-bodied & has Alnico-magnet pickups. It is a little on the heavy side & has a super Maple neck/fingerboard. I have upgraded it with Fender Custom Shop '54 pickups & gold hardware, but that is just my preference. I believe it was a Ltd. edition model at the time. My serial no. is V028755. You can see it in my Avatar to the right of this message.
Tony.
