From Fender:

"The tone, feel, and looks of a vintage early-'60s Strat are yours, with the Fender Custom Shop 1963 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic guitar. The early '60s were a revolutionary period for the Stratocaster, introducing advancements such as a new pickup configuration, a refined neck profile, and round-laminated fretboards. For period-accurate tone, this Strat is equipped with a trio of hand-would Fat '60s single-coil pickups, delivering authentic '60s Strat tones with amazingly dynamic response. Crafted to exacting 1963 specs, and complete with a Journeyman Relic finish and Closet Classic hardware, the Fender Custom Shop 1963 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic delivers an authentic vintage Fender experience for a fraction of the cost of a 1963 original."

This guitar comes with the original hardshell case and the COA with all case candy.
