Fender Custom Shop 1951 Nocaster Journeyman Relic 1-P Rift Sawn Maple Neck Aged Crimson Transparent

Available from Gear4Music at £4,799.00 ($6,095).

The Fender Custom Shop 1951 Nocaster Journeyman Relic is a refined recreation of one of Fenders earliest and most influential designs combining classic Blackguard tone with subtle ageing and Custom Shop precision. Finished in Aged Crimson Transparent it offers a unique twist on traditional finishes while still capturing that unmistakable early 50s character. The 2-piece select ash body delivers bright punchy response with excellent sustain while the nitrocellulose lacquer finish allows the wood to resonate freely giving you a lively and dynamic feel across a wide range of playing styles. A 1-piece rift sawn maple neck shaped to a substantial 1951 "U" profile provides a full comfortable grip paired with a vintage compound 7.25 to 9.5 inch radius for a blend of classic feel and improved playability. Jescar vintage frets keep things authentic while allowing smoother bends and control. Loaded with Custom Shop hand-wound 51 Nocaster pickups this guitar delivers sharp attack rich mids and clear highs with plenty of dynamic response. Finished with vintage-style hardware and a traditional control layout its a pure expressive instrument built for players who want early Fender tone with added refinement.
