Description: Fender Custom Shop 69 Strat Journeyman Relic Elec. Guitar - British Racing Green Description This wonderful Fender Custom Shop guitar was picked out by our General Manager, Andy Gough. It is a Custom Shop 1969 Strat in British Racing Green with a Maple Fingerboard and a light relic finish. Fender’s world-class Custom Shop luthiers painstakingly handcrafted the Limited Edition ’69 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic complete with vintage-spec details such as a select alder body, a gently relic’d nitrocellulose lacquer finish and 3-ply pickguard, vintage-style bridge and tuners, and a rift-sawn tinted maple neck. In the electronics department, the Limited Edition ’69 Strat features three hand-wound ’69 Strat Custom Shop hand-wound pickups and modern wiring that deliver the classic spank and sparkle that drove countless iconic recordings. For the Limited Edition ’69 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic, Fender Custom Shop artisans referenced several original ’69 Strats and exhaustively analyzed them to ensure a painstaking level of vintage accuracy. Every facet of the original instruments — including minute details such as curves, perimeters, radii, and more — was examined, measured, evaluated, and ultimately incorporated into this amazing instrument. This remarkable axe is more than the sum of its parts. It’s a highly playable, eminently musical-sounding re-creation of an iconic instrument that changed music forever.Though a relic’d guitar finish is almost as common these days as a flawless factory finish, it was the Fender Custom Shop that pioneered the process — and they know how to do it better than anyone. Fender offers different levels of finish distressing. One of the newer techniques is the Journeyman, found on the Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition ’69 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic. This is an authentic nitrocellulose lacquer finish, which is thinner than today’s polyurethane finishes, allowing the wood to breathe and the tone to bloom. You get a look and feel that’s used but not abused. Imagine a beloved, decades-old guitar that’s been well taken care of, with a played-in feel but perfect fretwork. This is one of 3 Custom Shop guitars we ordered in the last quarter of 2023 and it just came to us for the start of April , 2024. We hope this great guitar is as exciting for you as it was for us and we will keep bringing different Custom Shop guitars each month as we get them.
