Limited Custom Shop with flexible sound
With the Fender Limited Edition '60 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic RW Super Faded Aged Sonic Blue, the FenderCustom Shop sends a classically designed Strat for juicy blues and rock sounds into the race. While the "Contour Body" and Quartersawn Maple neck in the "'60s Style Oval C" profile promise the usual playability, the slightly artificially aged Journeyman Relic nitrocellulose finish provides the look and feel of a frequently played but lovingly maintained vintage original. Three hand-wound Custom Shop Texas Special single coils with flexible "Strat ½ Blender" circuitry also provide versatile clean and overdrive tones with powerful punch. Classic Hardware in the form of a Custom Shop Vintage Synchronized Tremolo and tuning stable Vintage-Style tuners completes the Limited Edition '60 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic RW Super Faded Aged Sonic Blue.
Classic woods and comfortable handling
When building the Limited Edition '60 Journeyman Relic Strat, the FenderCustom naturally follows the historical specifications. Accordingly, under the thin nitro finish that does not affect the guitar's resonance, a lightweight alder body and a maple neck with standing annual rings and rosewood fingerboard are used. While the generous shapes of the "Contour Body" design promise a cuddly handling, the not too strong "'60s Style Oval C" profile fits perfectly in the hand, so that between the 21 jumbo frets every lick and riff comes out of the fingers with ease.
Texas Special Pickups with "½ Blender".
With three hand-woundFender Custom Shop Texas Special single coils, the Limited Edition '60 Strat Journeyman Relic elicits punchy clean and overdrive tones from the guitar amp, expressively delivering every riff and lick with well-measured bite and lively dynamics. For a particularly high variety of sounds also provides the smart "Strat ½ Blender" circuit, which mixes the neck pickup in the switch positions 1 and 2 via a separate blend control and thus provides the combination of neck and bridge pickup and all three pickups.
Vintage Style Hardware
Of course, the FenderCustom Shop equips the Limited Edition '60 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic RW Super Faded Aged Sonic Blue with historically correct Hardware, which also completes professional stage and studio sessions with unshakable reliability. As a bridge serves the proven Custom Shop Vintage-Style Synchronized Tremolo, which not only convinces with a particularly smooth handling, but with six string riders guarantees an exact adjustment of intonation and string position. Behind the bone nut, Fender Vintage-Style tuners also ensure a robust and precise tuning of the Custom Shop electric guitar.
