Contact our experts for a recommendation of great alternatives. Call us at 800-449-9128.
Overview
A recreation of the classic with an alder body and handwound pickups.
The Fender Custom Shop 1963 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic Electric Guitar features an alder body with thin lacquer finish, maple neck, rosewood fingerboard with 9.5" radius and 6105 frets, handwound Stratocaster pickups with 5-way switching, three-ply mint green pickguard, and vintage hardware. The middle pickup is reverse-wound so that positions 2 and 4 are virtually noiseless.
This detailed Custom Shop reproduction of a 1963 Strat was built utilizing original tooling and production techniques of the era. And its light, Journeyman Relic finish treatment gives it the look of an axe that was used, not abused, although it is absolutely new in setup and playability. Includes hardshell case.
