FENDER SAYS
Almost too hot to handle—that’s the Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition Tomatillo Strat Special Journeyman Relic, a spicy new version sure to surprise and delight players with a taste for strong sonic seasoning.
All that heat radiates from classically stylish Strat design supercharged with Custom Shop hand-wound Tomatillo neck and middle pickups (middle is reverse-wound/reverse-polarity for hum cancellation) and an extra-punchy Custom Shop hand-wound Ancho Poblano Strat bridge pickup. It’s a popular and extra-lively pickup combination with superb dynamics, especially when paired with the Fat '50s Strat 1/2 Blender wiring, which delivers punchy attack with a bouncy bloom and dynamic blending control of bridge and neck pickups.
The two-piece select alder body wears a Journeyman Relic flash coat lacquer finish in a choice of Tomatillo Green, Super Faded Aged Shell Pink or Super Faded Aged Sonic Blue. The one-piece rift-sawn maple neck has a super-comfortable 11/’56 off-center “V” profile ideal for wrap-around hand positioning, topped by a vintage compound-radius fingerboard (7.25” to 9.5”) with 21 narrow tall (6105) frets. Other premium features include five-way pickup switch, three-ply parchment pickguard, Custom Shop vintage synchronized tremolo bridge, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, and wing string tree with tall metal spacer. Also includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.
