Fender Japan Wasted Youth

Fender Japan Wasted Youth Telecaster and Mustang Bass models are exclusive to the Japanese market and a collaboration with the artist Verdy. Wasted Youth, is known for partnerships with brands like Budweiser and Casio. Verdy became the Budweiser Japan Creative Director back in July last year and so this latest release with Fender Japan stems from that connection.

Both guitar and bass models come with a set of exclusive accessories, including a T-shirt, guitar picks, and a hard case with a hand-painted Wasted Youth logo stencil by Verdy
