Introducing: Your Dream Instrument from Fender

Every info for your decision
As early as 1950, Fender began developing the new guitar, which was later christened the Stratocaster. After consulting with a number of well-known guitarists, including western swing musician Bill Carson and entertainer Rex Galleon, for whom Leo Fender was to build the perfect guitar, the design for the Stratocaster began to take shape. It was to have three pickups, a more comfortable, ergonomically shaped body and a completely new feature: the vibrato.
In 1954, the Fender Stratocaster finally came onto the market. The instrument looked like no guitar before it: the body appeared curvier and more flowing than that of the Telecaster and was intended to increase playing comfort, the new headstock was somewhat reminiscent of the old Bigsby headstocks, the jack socket was elegantly recessed into the side of the body instead of on the top and the Strat was equipped with three single-coil pickups.
The Fender Custom Shop has set itself the task of studying the high-quality vintage Stratocasters of yesteryear and reproducing them down to the smallest detail. Here we have a very special Custom Shop one-off from Masterbuilder Kyle McMillin for you, modelled on a Stratocaster from the 1950s:
The Fender Custom Shop 1958 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic ASH AWBL MBKM Masterbuilt Kyle McMillin is a classic ST-style electric guitar with a two-piece ash body. Ash wood was already used in the original Stratocaster guitars and provides the basis for the perfect vintage sound. The body wood was selected by hand to ensure a particularly light weight and thus improve playing comfort. The AA flamed maple neck with flamed maple fingerboard features a '54 Style Soft "V" profile in the style of the 50s and a compund fingerboard radius of 7,25" - 9,5", which offers the perfect compromise between vintage feel and modern comfort and makes it easier for the left hand to grip. The guitar is equipped with a classic S-S-S pickup combination of three Fender Custom Shop Handwound '50s single coil pickups. Other features include Fender Vintage Style tuners, white soft touch knobs, a Fender 6-Saddle Vintage-Style Synchronized Tremolo Bridge and a single ply white pickguard.
This model is finished in a classic Aged White Blonde. The thin nitrocellulose lacquer finish ensures that the wood can vibrate particularly well and that the lacquer finish ages more beautifully. Here’s where we get into the look and feel of a guitar that’s been loved and played. If you play your instrument often, it’s a simple truth that your axe will eventually show some wear. Even for players who take great care of their guitars, a fall from a stand, other people’s wandering hands, or even the mysteriously-appearing ding can take a toll. Each of those marks adds character. And that’s what you get with Fender Custom Shop’s Journeyman Relic level. A well-taken-care-of instrument that has been played, gigged, and loved.
The Fender Custom Shop 1958 Stratocaster Journeyman Relic ASH AWBL MBKM Masterbuilt Kyle McMillin comes with a certificate of authenticity in a luxurious original Fender Custom Shop Brown Tolex case with orange interior, allowing you to safely transport your new dream guitar and protect it from external influences.
