Vintage style meets modern playability in this relic'd 1959 Stratocaster recreation.
The Fender Custom Shop 1959 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic gives you vintage-styled Stratocaster tone and feel with Journeyman-level aging. Its alder body and AAA flame maple neck provide a lightweight, resonant foundation for articulate Fender tone. The custom '54 Stratocaster pickups deliver shimmering cleans and crisp overdrive just like the originals. With a Journeyman Relic finish, this guitar shows natural wear from years of hard-fought gigs, but its genuine Fender craftsmanship ensures it sounds as good as it looks. For players seeking vintage-accurate Stratocaster tone and mojo, the Fender Custom Shop 1959 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic is a must-play.
Journeyman Relic Finish Shows Decades of Use
The Journeyman Relic finish on this Stratocaster replicates the natural aging of a well-loved '50s original. Nicks, dings, worn spots and rust patina appear throughout the alder body and flame maple neck, giving the impression this guitar has been played night after night for 60-plus years. Yet underneath its vintage vibe, it remains a pristine, modern Fender Custom Shop creation with their renowned build quality and playability.
Custom '54 Pickups Provide Vintage Tone
The three custom '54 Stratocaster pickups are hand-wound to vintage-correct specs, providing authentic Fender single-coil tone from the '50s. The bridge pickup cuts through with stinging clarity and definition. The middle pickup offers punchy rhythm tones, while the neck pickup delivers warm, rounded lead tones. With the 5-way switch, you can access all pickup combinations to craft your own signature sound.
AAA Flame Maple Neck Evokes a Bygone Era
The neck on this Stratocaster is crafted from premium AAA flame maple, a feature typically only found on high-end vintage instruments. The flame figure creates an artistic, retro look while the maple provides stability and sustain. An early '60s profile and 21 narrow-tall frets make the neck fast and comfortable for lead playing. The vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut and 3-ply mint green pickguard complete the vintage aesthetic.
