This Fender Custom Shop ’56 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic from the 2024 Time Machine Collection captures the soul of a well-loved vintage original with remarkable authenticity. Its alder body wears a beautifully aged Surf Foam Green lacquer with heavy checking that feels instantly familiar, while the soft ’56 “V” neck profile invites relaxed, expressive playing. Hand-wound Fat ’50s pickups deliver glassy highs, woody mids, and that unmistakable Strat sparkle with touch-sensitive response. Thoughtfully relic’d hardware and vintage-correct details complete an instrument that feels alive, broken-in, and inspiring—a true heirloom-quality investment built to reward players for decades to come.
