2024 Fender Limited Edition 1965 Dual-Mag Stratocaster Journeyman Relic - Sage Green Metallic
Stepping into the golden era of the mid-sixties, this Custom Shop masterpiece captures the essence of 1965 with a sophistication only the Fender Dream Factory can deliver. Built around a two-piece select alder body and a rock-solid quartersawn maple neck, this Strat offers the resonance and snappy response that defined a decade of rock and roll. The Journeyman Relic finish provides that perfectly broken-in feel, looking like a well-loved treasure that’s spent years on the road while the "Closet Classic" hardware retains a cleaner, more refined luster.
The true magic lies under the hood with the hand-wound Dual-Mag II pickups. These unique coils utilize a mix of Alnico II and Alnico V magnets to provide a perfectly balanced output across all six strings—sparkling highs and tight, punchy lows. Combined with the Tone-Saver bleed circuit, your tone remains crystal clear even when you roll the volume back. Whether you’re chasing the soulful blues of Jimi Hendrix or the pristine cleans of Eric Johnson, this 1965 recreation delivers the legendary Stratocaster "quack" and bite with modern reliability.
Rounding out this premium build is a round-lam rosewood fingerboard featuring a 9.5" radius and narrow-tall frets for effortless bending and smooth playability. The '65 "C" neck profile sits comfortably in the hand, offering a slightly more substantial feel than the thin 50s profiles without feeling bulky. Finished in a stunning Sage Green Metallic with gold hardware and a three-ply black pickguard, this limited edition beauty isn't just a guitar—it's a piece of history ready for the stage at Palen Music Center.
