Fender Japan has embraced the bizarro spirit of Squier’s Paranormal Series to create an all-new limited edition offset guitar. They’re calling it the Starmaster, and as the portmanteau suggests, this hybrid is a mashup of the Starcaster and Jazzmaster.
Two cult classics united on one soon-to-be-cult classic? Perhaps. These are only available in Japan, which is inconvenient but also is another excuse, if needed, to visit Tokyo and pop into Fender’s flagship retail store in Harajuku – a mind-blowing retail space for Fender nerds, in a mind-blowing location. But we could see the Starmaster gaining some traction internationally.
