A meticulously crafted homage to a vintage Stratocaster, with relic'd details and classic Fender tone.
The Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition '64 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic is a museum-quality recreation of a well-loved and broken-in 1964 Strat. This guitar channels the magic of a hard-played vintage instrument, from its relic lacquer finish to its meticulous vintage-spec construction. Whether you're a collector seeking a premium relic or a working musician searching for an inspiring tone machine, this Strat delivers.
Relic Nitty-Gritty Details Done Right
Every aspect of this Stratocaster's relic treatment was painstakingly executed by Fender's expert builders. The aged Olympic white lacquer finish is riddled with precise dings, scratches and checking that you'd expect from over 50 years of play. The quartersawn maple neck sports a smooth '60s C-shaped profile and bears the unique dents and grooves that come from a lifetime of gigs. Even the bone nut and hardware show signs of honest wear and tear. It's a true time capsule of Fender's iconic craftsmanship.
Vintage-Inspired Details for Premium Feel
This Journeyman Relic Stratocaster was built to provide the same broken-in comfort as a vintage '60s model. The quartersawn maple neck has a smooth, resonant '60s C profile that's a dream for chording and leads. The round-lam rosewood fingerboard hosts 21 narrow tall frets that allow effortless bending. The 3-ply mint green pickguard and vintage-style tuning machines complete the period-correct look. Even the synchronized tremolo bridge maintains the buttery smooth vibrato feel that Strats are famous for.
Hand-Wound Single-Coils Nail Vintage Strat Tones
To recreate the unmistakable Fender sound of the '60s, this Stratocaster is loaded with a trio of hand-wound Texas Special single-coil pickups. The neck and middle pickups produce bell-like cleans and gritty overdrive, while the bridge pickup delivers searing lead tones. Together, they offer a wide range of classic Strat sounds, from chimey rhythms to singing solos. With the 5-way switch, you can instantly tap into any pickup combination, unlocking near-infinite tonal versatility.
Premium Fender Appointments Inside and Out
Along with its relic treatment and vintage-spec construction, this Strat includes first-class Fender appointments. The deluxe hardshell case provides superior protection for your investment, while the certificate of authenticity validates its custom-shop origins. With its bone nut, nickel/chrome hardware and lacquer finish over select alder, this is one seriously player-grade Strat. Whether you're a touring pro or a passionate hobbyist, it delivers premium tone and feel in one package.
