A distinctive Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition '56 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic, built as part of the 2022 Fender Fall Event Limited Edition collection.

Its Super Faded/Aged Surf Green finish is combined with Fender Custom Shop's Journeyman Flash Coat Lacquer treatment, creating a lightly aged appearance without the heavier wear associated with more extreme relic finishes.

The guitar features a select 2-piece alder body and a rift-sawn maple neck with Fender's 10/56 “V” profile.

A 9.5" fingerboard radius and 21 Narrow Tall 6105 frets make this '56-inspired Stratocaster particularly comfortable for modern playing while retaining its distinctly vintage character.

Electronics

The guitar is equipped with three Fender Custom Shop Hand-Wound Master Design Bone Tone Strat pickups and Fat '50s Strat 1/2 Blender wiring.

The five-way selector and blender circuit expand the traditional SSS layout while maintaining the core Stratocaster character.
