Fender Custom Shop 1965 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic 2024 Burgundy Mist Metallic

Fender Custom Shop 1965 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic in awesome thin nitrocellulose Burgundy Mist finish with light Journeyman aging. We’re off to a great start!!

The rest is classic ’65 Strat with subtle modern upgrades. The bolt-on quartersawn maple neck has a period ’65 “C” profile, while the rosewood fingerboard has a 9.5″ radius and narrow-tall frets for low action and easy bending.

Electronics are classic Strat clarity and chime. Three hand-wound ’65 Strat pickups, 5-way selector, with a Tone-Saver treble-bleed on the volume. Tone controls are neck and bridge. Hardware is vintage-style throughout: synchronized tremolo with bent-steel saddles and vintage tuners.

A practical, stage-ready take on a ’60s Strat recipe that takes it over the top with the awesome Burgundy Mist relic finish.
