New for 2024, the Fender Custom Shop introduces the 1959 Stratocaster® Journeyman Relic®. The two-piece select alder body wears Journeyman Relic® lacquer finishes in Super Faded Aged Shell Pink, Super Faded Aged Sonic Blue, Faded Aged Sea Foam Green and Faded Aged Sherwood Green Metallic for the authentically worn-in look and feel of a family heirloom instrument that’s been handed down through the years.Classic appointments from the end of the decade are featured up and down the guitar: quartersawn maple neck with ’59-style “D” back-shape and flat-laminated rosewood fingerboard bring out the best in tone and playability. Armed with a trio of Custom Shop hand-wound Fat ‘50s Stratocaster® pickups, Vintage Modified #2 wiring and Tone-Save bleed circuitry, there’s no shortage of sought after golden era tone.Other premium features include 9.5" radius, 21 narrow tall (6105) frets, 5-way switch, 3-ply mint green pickguard, Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, wing string tree with tall metal spacer, deluxe hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.NeckHEADSTOCKStratocaster®NECK MATERIALQuartersawn MapleNECK FINISHNitrocellulose LacquerNECK SHAPE1959 "D"NECK THICKNESS.800"NECK BUTT WIDTH2.200"NECK THICKNESS 12TH FRET.980"FINGERBOARD RADIUS9.5" (241 mm)FINGERBOARD MATERIAL3A RosewoodPOSITION INLAYSVintage Clay DotNUMBER OF FRETS21TRUSS RODEarly '60sSTRING NUTBoneNUT WIDTH1.650" (42 mm)NUT MATERIALBoneBodyBODY2-Piece Select AlderBODY FINISHNitrocellulose LacquerBODY SHAPEStratocaster®BODY MATERIAL2-Piece Select AlderHardwareBRIDGECustom Shop Vintage Synchronized TremoloPICKGUARD3-Ply Mint GreenCONTROL KNOBSVintage White PlasticSWITCH TIPVintage WhiteHARDWARE FINISHNickel/ChromeTUNING MACHINESVintage-Style with Fender® LogoSTRING TREESAmerican Vintage '59-'64STRINGSNickel Plated Steel (.010-.046 Gauges)TREMOLO ARMVintage Upgraded '60sNECK PLATE4-Bolt with Custom Shop "V" Logo, SerializedElectronicsBRIDGE PICKUPCustom Shop Hand-Wound Fat '50s Single-Coil Strat®MIDDLE PICKUPCustom Shop Hand-Wound RWRP Fat '50s Single-Coil Strat®NECK PICKUPCustom Shop Hand-Wound Fat '50s Single-Coil Strat®PICKUP CONFIGURATIONSSSCONTROLSMaster Volume with Tone-Saver Treble-Bleed Circuit, Tone 1.
