It was used by Kyoji Yamamoto, the guitarist of BOWWOW, at the time. Did it imitate the 1-pickup Stratocaster modified by Edward Van Halen of Van Halen, which was very popular at the time? This model also had one pickup. Based on the SF30000 model, modifications such as the addition of two pickups have been made by my friend. ・Additional cavity processing for the front pickup and relocation of the rear pickup cavity: A new cavity (hollowing) for the pickup was added on the neck side, and the original cavity closer to the center was enlarged towards the bridge to achieve a more rear pickup-like sound. ・Production and installation of an original design pickguard: Due to the enlargement of the rear pickup cavity, the cavity would be exposed if an escutcheon was installed, so it was decided to install a pickguard as a solution. The final design was chosen from several design options, and a pickguard made of golden sandalwood (Rio Grande Palisander) board and finished with clear (transparent) water-based urethane varnish was installed. *The continuation of the product description after the above exceeds the character limit, so it will be posted in the comment section.
