NEW
Seasoning Caster series (4 types )
The ST type, which was the most requested by customers, has finally been completed!
This is a masterpiece that is the culmination of the luthier.
A modern and pop design unique to CGK. Nitrocellulose lacquer paint that mimics the guitar finishes of the 50s and 60s, with checkered stitching and V-line pickguard. Four colors are available in exquisite shades that incorporate trendy colors. The pickups were developed by an Osaka manufacturer and CGK, and the vintage sound has been arranged for modern use. In addition, the tone knob is a push-type, and it is possible to select from 7 types (rainbow tone) of pickup. It is possible to select a mix of the front and rear, as well as simultaneous output of the three pickups, which cannot be achieved with a normal Stratocaster type. In addition, it has a 6-point synchronized tremolo and GOTOH-made Klusone-type tuning pegs. It is filled with the luthier’s respect for the early days of electric guitars. The ST series is high-spec not only in terms of looks but also sound. (All four colors have the same specs, except for the sunburst, which has a maple fingerboard.
The ST type, the most requested by customers, is finally completed! This is one of our luthier’s best work.Nitrocellulose lacquer coating mimics the guitar painting of the 50’s and 60’s.Four colors are available in exquisite shades that incorporate trendy colors. Pickups were originally developed by CGK with a manufacturer in Osaka, Japan. Alnico V pickups have been carefully adjusted to match the fingerboard and body material. In addition, the tone knob is a push type, and 7 types of pickups (rainbow tone) can be selected. 3 pickups can be output simultaneously. This guitar is full of respect for the early days of electric guitars by luthier, and it not only looks good, but also sounds high-spec.
Original Pickup
The Alnico V pickup is designed with a winding pattern and coil tension that have been carefully considered.
The height of the magnets has been precisely adjusted to match the fingerboard and body materials, and only the bridge has a high-gain specification to meet modern needs.
7 different tones can be selected
Press and hold MiddleTone to select from 7 types
(rainbow tone) of pickup. You can select between 3 pickup outputs and a mix of front and rear, which is not possible with a standard Stratocaster.
The neck is easy to grip
It is 1mm narrower than a standard ST, so it is popular for being “easy to grip” the moment you hold it. Even those with small hands can use it.
When you press the MiddleTone knob to raise it, you can select the red circles (2 places) in the diagram above to enable simultaneous output of the 3 pickups and simultaneous output of the Front & Bridge.

STC1_ Calamari Black
(Calamari Black)
The standard color is black. It’s chic, but
the gold pick guard gives it a vintage feel and
amplifies the gorgeousness!
The checkered stitching on the edge of the body
is a painstakingly applied paint method. Each piece is
hand-made using masking tape. Even the slight
misalignment gives it a handmade feel that’s cute.
STC1_Lychee Blue
(Lychee Blue)
A unique blend of colors to create a vivid blue.
The synchronized tremolo is fixed with five springs.
This color was a real eye-catcher at the exhibition.
STC1_Creamy Sesame
(Creamy Sesame)
A silver color that incorporates the latest trends. It is possible to output three picks at the same time to make everyone’s dreams come true! The rear is high-gain, so change to the rear when you’re solo!
STC1_Marron Sunburst
(Marron Sunburst)
This is the first sunburst model from CGK! The fingerboard is made of maple for this sunburst model only. It has a “slightly crisper sound” than rosewood fingerboards. The grain is vivid and the finish is beautiful. The head is also simple and cool!
