Journeyman Relic finish
Replaces 2016 Postmodern Stratocaster
Replaced by 2018 Postmodern Stratocaster Journeyman Relic
FENDER SAYS
There’s no better way to add some girth to your sound then with the versatile Journeyman Relic Postmodern HSS Stratocaster. Updating the classic Strat vibe and sound with a humbucking bridge pickup, this guitar also wears a Journeyman Relic finish, granting it the look and feel of a well-loved instrument from the past.
The crystal-clear neck and RWRP middle pickups are joined by a giant-sounding ShawBucker humbucking pickup, fattening up your sound with high-output tone that can easily drive a tube amp into glorious overdrive. Dual 250k/500k volume pots ensure a smooth transition when switching between single-coil and humbucking pickups.
Other features include a lightweight two-piece select alder body, quartersawn maple neck with ‘63 Strat “C”-shaped profile, AAA round-lam 9.5”-12” compound-radius fingerboard, 22 6100 frets, RSD Stratocaster bridge and bone nut. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and Certificate of Authenticity.
