Recreate vintage Stratocaster magic with the '54 Roasted Strat Journeyman Relic.
The Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition 1954 Roasted Stratocaster Journeyman Relic gives you vintage tone and style with modern playability. Designed for serious guitarists, this Stratocaster is packed with custom appointments that provide a truly premium playing experience.
Premium Ash Body Delivers Iconic Strat Tone
The two-piece ash body, finished in Wide-Fade Chocolate 2-Color Sunburst, gives you the unmistakable tone of a '50s Stratocaster. Ash's resonant qualities emphasize punchy mids and sparkling highs. Three custom handwound single-coil pickups capture the nuanced sound of original 1954 Strat pickups but with less noise. Switch between pickup combinations for everything from bright funk rhythm to singing lead tones.
Roasted Maple Neck Offers Smooth Playability
The roasted maple neck on this Stratocaster gives you a smooth, fast feel that emulates a well-played vintage instrument. Its quartersawn grain provides strength and stability for chording and soloing. Combined with a bone nut and narrow frets, the neck allows effortless position changes and string bending. A vintage heel-adjust truss rod provides precise relief adjustments to suit your playing style.
Vintage-Style Bridge Provides Flexibility
A vintage-style synchronized tremolo bridge offers expressive string bending and warbling. Its bent steel saddles and baseplate are carefully calibrated to maintain tuning stability during heavy tremolo use. Adjust the bridge to your preferred string height and intonation for optimal playability. The tremolo arm gives you full control over subtle pitch variations, from barely perceptible to dramatically detuned.
Premium Appointments Honor Fender's History
With gold anodized pickguard, skirted control knobs and Fender-branded tuners, this Stratocaster nods to Fender's iconic design. A nitrocellulose lacquer finish and hand-rubbed neck provide a smooth, resonant feel that improves with age. As a journeyman relic, light wear and oxidation give it a gently aged appearance. A deluxe hardshell case and strap keep your new Stratocaster protected. Experience Fender history in a guitar as stunning to see as it is to play.
