Key Features
The Fender Custom Shop '64 Strat Journeyman is a step into the Stratocaster's golden days. Recreating a vintage guitar with stunning accuracy, this Journeyman Relic'd Strat features the sweet playability of a classic Fender, and the authentic finish of the Custom Shop's master luthiers. That playability stems from a round laminated rosewood fretboard and a 1963 "C" shaped neck that'll feel exactly like an original from the period.
And backing up its vintage action is a set of custom pickups. Wound exactly like the single coils of the '60s, they'll grant you the crisp, sparkling sounds of the Strats from yesteryear. As they're hand wound, you'll be treated to a guitar with an individuality and musical personality that's unique to you. And to protect this one-of-a-kind instrument, it comes included with a deluxe hardshell case so you can maintain its pristine presentation. What better way to expand your collection than with an instrument that captures the soul of the '60s? The Custom Shop '64 Strat awaits?

Fender takes authenticity to the next level. It's not enough to have a relic finish that looks the part, it's got to sound genuine too. And that's why the Custom Shop have installed hand-wound, custom pickups to revive the sounds of the sixties. Hosting a set of Fat '64 single coils, you're treated to the classic musicality of Strat pickups, but with added presence and weight to your tone.
Clucks, spangles and twangs are all voiced in articulate detail by these magnificent single coils, and their added Fat character means your sound will never be too thin or tinny. With a reverse wound / reverse polarity middle pickup, you've got heaps of tonal versatility together with hum-free clarity. Completed with Tone-Saver bleed circuitry to preserve the highs even at lower volumes, this guitar will bring vintage sounds to life like never before.
The Strat character that will bring a smile to your face. It just feels right. Showcasing a 1963 "C" shaped neck that's finished in the original nitrocellulose lacquer, you're rewarded with a true vintage vibe, in addition to a slick, swift playing action. And that only gets better with the sleek rosewood fretboard. Just like guitars of the time, it's shaped in a 9.5" radius so that it's equally good for chording and solo work.
Hosting 21 narrow tall frets and vintage clay dot position inlays, the fretboard is packed with retro charm. In addition to the frets enabling precision playing, you'll be guided in style by those authentic position inlay dots.
Let loose with your playing. Equipped with a vintage style Custom Shop Synchronised tremolo bridge and a set of vintage tuners, you’re going to play to your best. That’s because these classic components will keep a strong hold on your strings, ensuring a stable performance that stays in tune! And that tremolo bridge will pave the way to all sorts of vibrato antics.
To cap it all off you get a dedicated hardcase to keep your one-of-a-kind Custom Shop creation protected. It’ll give you piece of mind while taking this collectible to gigs or recording sessions, ensuring it stays in pristine (yet relic’d!) condition. Added to that is a certificate of authenticity, letting everyone know that your instrument is a genuine, bonafide Custom Shop.
