1959 was a pivotal year in the annals of Stratocaster history. Bringing gorgeous modern features to the Strat, this year saw the iconic introduction to the rosewood fingerboard on everyone's favorite electric guitar. The amazing Custom Shop Fender 1959 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic faithfully recreates the brilliant vintage rendition of that instrument, complete with all of the appointments that made it stand out from the crowd so many years ago. It comes in a mystic Faded Aged Sage Green Metallic finish with a Journeyman Relic aging pattern, along with aged hardware and a Mint Green pickguard.

This stunning Stratocaster brings back all of the authentic vintage glory from it's formative years — a flashy two-piece alder solidbody offers a comfortable playing feel, perfect for bringing sustain and warmth to your sound. It has a rift sawn maple neck that's boasting a '60s-style oval C-profile, complete with a perfect and easy-to-play AAA rosewood fingerboard on top. The fingerboard is decorated with twenty-one narrow tall frets, giving even more comfort, complete with vintage clay inlays to round it off.

The utterly powerful and versatile trio of hand-wound Fat '50s single-coil Strat pickups are controlled by a set of onboard vintage wiring and a master volume, two tone controls and a five-way blade switch. Keeping your intonation in check and your tuning as stable as ever is the Custom Shop vintage Strat relic tremolo bridge, matching the aged look and vintage feel of the rest of the guitar.
