Custom Shop ’62/’63 Stratocaster Journeyman

Description

A period of change, both for Fender and for pop culture as a whole, the 1960s saw the Strat mellow slightly as it grew up. The white pickguard was updated to mint green, and the fingerboard was switched from the original maple to rosewood, adding a smoother note to the Strat’s clear, articulate voice. This Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster is a great way to capture that vintage look and feel without the hefty price tag. The iconic instrument that helped birth guitar rock as we know it can also be yours. This particular guitar was ordered at a Fender Dealer Event in 2020 and has only just now arrived to us, so these guitars are only getting harder to get!
