Fender Custom Shop '60 Paulownia Stratocaster Journeyman Relic Master Built by Greg Fessler, Gold Sparkle / 3A Roasted Flame Maple Neck

This guitar, spec'd by Lewis on his 2024 visit to the Fender Custom Shop, working with Greg Fessler to base this on Lewis's personal Stratocaster, a Fessler-built '64 Gold Sparkle Relic Strat from around 20 years ago.

Better yet, Dylan managed to catch up with Greg on his 2026 visit and photograph the finished guitar in Greg's workshop, just about to ship to us! Similar to the other Greg Fessler builds from the same trip, it is a heavenly lightweight guitar - as comfortable and well balanced as a guitar can ever realistically be.
