What we say:

At A Glance

The Fender 1959 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic Aged Neon Green Rosewood Fingerboard takes us back to a time when guitarists didn't know quite how lucky they were. The late 50s was an exciting time for Fender that saw their now iconic models changing the landscape of music forever. A Strat from 1959 is seen as the holy grail for many guitarists, with several famous musicians who are lucky enough to have one using it as their main instrument. This collection from Fender Custom Shop allows more musicians to experience many of the revered features but without the astronomical price tag or the problems that can come with a decades old vintage guitar. Take a few minutes to explore this guitar and we think you'll be very impressed.

Features We Love:

1959 Collection

The 1959 "D" shaped Maple 5/4 Quarter Sawn neck is a joy to play. As well as the era appropriate features, you also have the benefit of a 9.5" radius and Jumbo frets, so you don't have to worry about bends choking out. It's all we could ask for in a Strat and more!

Custom Shop Crafted

Home to some of the most talented luthiers in the world, Fender Custom Shop has been producing incredible guitars since they first opened back in 1987. With a wealth of knowledge and skill all under one roof, each guitar is instilled with some of that Custom Shop magic.

Relic Aged Finish

This guitar's Relic Aged finish completely evokes the idea of an instrument that's been well played but well taken care of over the decades. Taken out regularly for some serious sessions and gigs, but wiped down and put back in its case at the end of the night. The result is the eye catching Neon Green finish along with the carefully placed paint chip adding the correct amount of character. It also has the unmistakable wear on the back of the neck giving it the aesthetic of a real workhorse.
