Description

The Fender Custom Shop limited-edition Double-Bound Stratocaster Journeyman Relic electric guitar features a vintage aesthetic in five striking finishes, and unique binding on the top and bottom. Achieve greater sustain from the increased mass of the alder body and play in comfort with the custom-design quartersawn roasted maple neck. The Stratocaster JCE custom single-coil pickups are low-output, vintage-style Fender pickups that deliver punchy dynamics and reproduce every note with pristine, bell-like clarity. They are handwound in the Fender Custom Shop and ensure your sound is packed full of soulful, authentic Fender tone. This Journeyman Relic comes with Standard '50s wiring so you don't lose precious high frequencies when you dial your volume, and it'll be more punchier and in-your-face overall.
