For Sale: 2024 Fender MIJ Japan Ishibashi FSR Traditional 60s Telecaster Custom – Blue Transparent w/ Tweed HSC

Up for sale is a 2024 Fender MIJ Japan Ishibashi FSR Traditional 60s Telecaster Custom in Blue Transparent, complete with a non-original tweed hard-shell case.

This is a very cool and limited Fender Japan Factory Special Run made for Ishibashi, featuring a distinctive Blue Transparent finish and classic double-bound Telecaster Custom styling. These FSR models are especially appealing because they offer traditional Tele looks with a more premium visual presentation, and this one has a great combination of vintage-inspired specs and clean Japanese craftsmanship. The transparent blue finish gives the guitar a standout look while still keeping it tasteful and classic.

Condition

This guitar is in excellent condition and I would rate it a solid 9.5/10. It shows only a few tiny dings from very light use. The guitar still has the protective plastic on the pickguard. Please review all photos carefully for the most accurate representation of condition.

There are no cracks, breaks, or repairs. The neck is straight, the frets are in excellent condition, and the guitar plays cleanly up and down the neck with no buzzing or dead spots. It has also been recently professionally set up and is ready to go.

The non-original tweed hard-shell case is included.

Electronics & Features

One of the biggest draws of this model is the combination of classic Telecaster Custom styling and limited FSR presentation. The double-bound body and Blue Transparent finish give it a more upscale look than a standard production Tele, while the vintage-style pickups and hardware keep it firmly rooted in traditional Fender territory.

This Ishibashi FSR is also a great example of why Fender Japan instruments remain so popular. The fit and finish are consistently strong, and the overall spec package feels thoughtfully put together for players who want vintage style with modern reliability.

Tone & Feel

This guitar has the clear, punchy, and articulate response you want from a good Telecaster. The vintage-style single-coils deliver excellent note definition, crisp attack, and classic Fender snap, making it a great fit for country, rock, blues, pop, and roots-oriented playing.

The U-shaped neck feels comfortable and substantial without being bulky, and the 9.5" radius makes the guitar especially easy to play. At 7 lbs 10 oz, it has a nicely balanced feel with enough weight to feel solid without being overly heavy.
