🎸 Circa 1994 Fender Japan ST54 "Mary Kaye" Strat, Custom Ordered 🎸

Blondes really do have more fun, and this one is the life of the party! 💛 Meet a stunning circa 1994 Fender Japan ST54, 𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦 𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 in the legendary "Mary Kaye" spec. This is the 1950s Vegas showgirl of Strats, and she's ready to steal the spotlight.

🔥 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐌𝐀𝐊𝐄𝐒 𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋 🔥
✅ 𝐂𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦 𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝, not your average off-the-rack Strat
✅ 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐅𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐩 '𝟓𝟒 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐮𝐩𝐬
✅ 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐮𝐦 𝐚𝐬𝐡 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 with gorgeous grain glowing through
✅ 𝐒𝐞𝐦𝐢-𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡, the iconic Mary Kaye look
✅ 𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞 that shines like jewelry under the lights
✅ 𝐄𝐱𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 for 30+ years young
✅ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐮𝐩 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧

🎶 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐓𝐎𝐍𝐄 🎶
Those Custom Shop '54 pickups are the real deal: 𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐲, 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐥-𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐬, that 𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐜𝐤 in the in-between positions, and a bright, snappy bite that slices through any mix. Paired with a resonant ash body, she rings out unplugged and absolutely 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 through an amp. Vintage 50s magic, no time machine required.

🎸 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐄𝐄𝐋 🎸
Like every guitar I sell, she's been 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐮𝐩 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 for optimal tone and playability. Low, comfortable action, smooth frets, and a neck that 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 straight out of the case.

💎 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐊 💎
The front is a 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐜𝐞. Just a few light scuffs and tiny dings, mostly on the back where only you'll know. That's a guitar that's been loved and gently played, then locked away. Clean, custom-ordered early-90s MIJ Mary Kayes like this are 𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐝.

Vintage glamour, Custom Shop tone, legendary Japanese build quality. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠! 💍

Our Guarantee  

We stand behind every guitar we sell. “Good enough” is never good enough. Every instrument is inspected, set up, and tested by multiple people immediately before shipping. We deliver the highest standard of quality and have built a reputation as a three-time NAMM Top 100 Dealer since 2009. The Dude Abides.  

Neck & Setup - (unless otherwise noted)

- Neck is perfectly straight with no truss-rod issues. 

- Intonation is spot-on.  

- Professionally set up with low action and new American-made strings.  

- All frets are dressed, leveled, crowned (if needed), and all frets on all guitars are polished to shine like new with no divots.  

Return Policy, Restocking Fees & No Tire-Kicking Policy 

We follow Reverb’s 7-day return policy. However:  

- You must 

notify us in writing within 3 days of delivery (per tracking) of your intent to return.  

- Original shipping and return shipping costs are not refunded unless the guitar is damaged in transit or is significantly not as described.  

- A 15% restocking fee applies to all returns for any reason other than damage in transit or significantly not as described.  Please note there is a 10% restocking fee on guitar orders that have been purchased and paid for - that have been off the market for 24 hours or more, even if they have not been shipped or picked up by the carrier. We perform a final set up and change strings put when an order is placed and paid for. NO EXCEPTIONS

We do our best to honestly describe and photograph every guitar and most of the noticeable imperfections. That said, we are human, if something very small can be overseen, if tiny marks, dings or super fine scratches (normal wear) bother you, please don't buy.

We record demo videos of every guitar before shipping to document exact condition and performance. Additional photos, measurements, or in-hand descriptions are available upon request prior to purchase.  

Minor adjustments and tweaks to a set up (for example to correct a slight buzz or truss-rod tweak) are normal after shipping due to carrier mishandling the package, climate & atmospheric changes, especially when moving from South Florida to colder or less humid environments. These slight issues do not constitute “significantly not as described.” Guitars must be returned in the exact same condition as received/advertised or additional repair/restocking fees will apply.  

We are a small family owned and run business, not a big-chain retailer. We invest significant time, money and effort into every guitar. This is a NO TIRE-KICKING shop. There is no post purchase haggling, returns without restocking fees or partial refunds. If minor cosmetic marks, tiny imperfections, or the possibility of a post-shipping setup tweak makes you uncomfortable, please do not buy. Plenty of large retailers offer free trials and can absorb shipping costs—we do not.  

Payment, Shipping & International Duties  

- All items can be shipped internationally. Buyer is fully responsible for all import duties, taxes, and customs fees.  

- We accept PayPal, PayPal Credit, Affirm, and other major payment methods.  

- Most U.S. shipments are sent via UPS or FedEx with full insurance, tracking, and signature confirmation. All packages are professionally packed for maximum protection.  

International Shipping Note 

International shipping prices shown are for most countries. Certain countries have higher costs. We try and avoid USPS and mostly ship UPS, but USPS is the only available or reasonable carrier in certain situations. Express services (UPS, DHL, FedEx) are always available. We can’t under value merchandise as it can not be properly insured. If you would like to discuss different avenues, contact us by phone for a personalized quote.  

Thank you for considering The Guitar Dude. We look forward to earning your business and delivering a guitar that exceeds your expectations. Contact us anytime for questions, consignment inquiries, layaway details, or a personalized shipping quote.
