This collection was designed for music lovers and electric guitar enthusiasts. Each piece is based on Fender’s legendary guitar models, such as the Stratocaster and Mustang, and is layered with the beauty of the ancient Japanese technique of “kintsugi”. Kintsugi is a traditional Japanese technique and philosophy that uses lacquer and gold powder to repair cracks in ceramics, sublimating chips and scratches into “beauty”. This idea of accepting imperfections and sublimating them into new charm and strength resonates perfectly with S.T. Dupont’s traditional gold powder technique. Homage to traditional crafts This collection reinterprets designs inspired by gold dust and kintsugi, a tradition inherited by S.T. Dupont. It is a tribute to Japanese craftsmanship, with the handiwork of skilled artisans shining through. The spirit of the legendary guitars lives on in the S.T. DuPont x Fender premium line.

Edward Bud Cole, President and CEO of Fender Music Asia Pacific, said, “This collaboration celebrates the power of craftsmanship, design and music. The artistry, aesthetic sense and passion for rock music that are important to both brands have been beautifully combined to create a one-of-a-kind collection.” He continued, “The Made in Japan Limited S.T. Dupont Stratocaster® is not just a musical instrument, but a piece of art that combines the precise craftsmanship and outstanding sound that are unique to Japanese-made products with a deep aesthetic sense rooted in Japanese culture. We are truly honored to be able to work with S.T. Dupont again, a company that has produced many luxurious and artistic masterpieces throughout its long history. We are proud to be able to deliver this special guitar to players and collectors who love both tone and tradition.” Alain Kourvet, CEO of S.T. Dupont, said, “With this collaboration, we aimed to create a unique dialogue between two iconic worlds: rock and refinement. Every piece embodies exceptional craftsmanship and bold design. The Ligne 2 lighter and the Line D Eternity The pen reinterprets the iconic lines of a Fender guitar, while a new guilloched pattern inspired by kintsugi celebrates the beauty of imperfection. From cigar accessories to pick-shaped pendants and tweed canvas leather goods, this collection embodies the free spirit that unites our two Maisons. It is a collection that celebrates creativity, identity and tradition.” [Guitar|Made in Japan Limited S.T. Dupont Stratocaster(R)] The “Made in Japan Limited S.T.
