This 2024 Fender Custom Shop '62–'63 Stratocaster RW Journeyman in Fiesta Red is a beautifully crafted tribute to early '60s Strats. It sports a lightly aged nitro finish over an alder body, giving it a broken-in feel right out of the case. The maple neck has a comfortable '63 "C" profile and a rosewood fingerboard with a vintage compound radius for easy playability. A trio of hand-wound ’60/’63 pickups delivers warm, articulate Strat tones, enhanced by vintage-style wiring. Finished with period-correct hardware, this Strat feels and sounds like a well-loved classic. Includes hardshell case and certificate of authenticity.
