Made in Japan Hybrid Series
The Made in Japan Hybrid Series, launched in 2017 under Chris Fleming’s direction, combined vintage Fender aesthetics with modern playability—featuring U.S.-made pickups, satin necks, and medium-jumbo frets. Building on its success, Fender introduced the Hybrid II Series in 2021, refining ergonomics with U.S.-based body contours, rounded neck edges, and narrow-tall frets. New Hybrid II Custom Voiced Pickups and orange-drop capacitors delivered balanced tone and clarity. With unique finishes like Modena Red and Forest Blue, the Hybrid II embodied the perfect blend of American Fender DNA and Japanese precision, offering versatile, high-quality instruments celebrated by artists and players worldwide.
