Maya 1970s MIJ Strat in White, USED

The Maya 1970s MIJ Strat in White is a vintage Japanese-made electric guitar that captures the essence of classic Stratocaster-style instruments from the era. Known for their quality craftsmanship and attention to detail, Maya guitars from the 1970s were produced during the golden age of Japanese guitar manufacturing, offering an affordable yet well-built alternative to American models. The white finish gives the guitar a timeless aesthetic, complemented by a contoured double-cutaway body that provides comfort and easy access to higher frets.  

Equipped with three single-coil pickups, the Maya Strat delivers bright, articulate tones with a balanced response, making it suitable for a range of musical styles, from blues and rock to funk and pop. The traditional Strat-style control layout—master volume, two tone knobs, and a five-way pickup selector—offers great versatility, allowing players to shape their sound with precision. The pickups produce the signature chime and clarity associated with vintage-style Stratocasters, with warm lows, scooped mids, and glassy highs.  

The maple neck features a comfortable C-shaped profile and maple fingerboard, ensuring a smooth playing experience. The bolt-on construction enhances the guitar's sustain and resonance, while the vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge allows for expressive vibrato techniques. Hardware components, including tuning machines and bridge saddles, reflect the sturdy build quality typical of Japanese instruments from this era.  

As a vintage MIJ instrument, the Maya 1970s Strat is a great choice for collectors and players seeking a unique take on the classic Strat design. With its vintage tone, solid construction, and distinctive aesthetics, this guitar stands as a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of Japanese guitar makers from the 1970s.
