The Fender Custom Shop Journeyman Relic Stratocaster captures the look and feel of a well-loved vintage instrument with the precision and consistency of modern craftsmanship.

Finished in a Journeyman Relic lacquer, it offers a lightly aged appearance that feels broken-in without being overly worn. The 2-piece select alder body delivers classic Strat tone with balanced mids, clear highs, and a tight low end.

The maple neck features a comfortable ’60s Oval C profile paired with a 3A rosewood fingerboard, offering a smooth playing feel and a slightly warmer tonal response. With a 9.5" radius and vintage-style frets, it blends traditional feel with modern playability.

Equipped with Custom Shop hand-wound ’60s single-coil pickups, this Strat delivers authentic vintage tones with excellent clarity and dynamics. The RWRP middle pickup provides hum-canceling in positions 2 and 4, while the modern wiring setup ensures reliable performance across all settings.
