For the construction of the Fender 2018 Journeyman Relic Tomatillo Strat, the Fender Custom Shop uses a selection of carefully matched woods. The body is made of selected light alder, while the neck and fretboard are made of curly maple with standing annual rings. The thin nitrocellulose finish allows the wood to breathe freely and vibrate, guaranteeing a lively tone. The combination of the "10/56 V" neck profile, jumbo frets and a saddle width of 42.8 mm also creates optimum conditions for first-class playability.
The electric tone conversion of the Fender Journeyman Relic Tomatillo Strat is performed by three hand-wound Fender Custom Shop Tomatillo Single Coil Pickups, whose sound was specially tuned to the guitar. Accordingly, the Alnico II Single Coils convince with a particularly clear, bell-like vintage tone that captures every nuance of the game in fine detail. The "½ Blender"-Wiringoffers increased tonal flexibility: In position 1 and position 2 of the 5-way blade switch, the neck pickup can be continuously added via the second tone control, so that the otherwise impossible combination of bridge and neck pickup and all three pickups can be called up.
Last but not least, the Fender 2018 Limited Journeyman Relic Tomatillo Strat features traditional hardware in a stylish and reliable vintage style. With the help of the Fender American Vintage Synchronized Tremolo, chords and melodies can be adorned with dazzling pitch modulations, while classic Fender Vintage Style tuners guarantee a stable and precise tuning.
Combining vintage style with modern luxuries, the Limited Edition Tomatillo Stratocaster delivers sweet, flavorful tone and plenty of smooth playability. New pickups and a unique wiring scheme make this limited-edition guitar the perfect weapon to command the stage. The Journeyman Relic flash-coat lacquer finish allows the wood to breathe with pure resonance and ages in a distinctly personal way. The trio of Tomatillo single-coil pickups share the same lineage as our Ancho Poblano and El Diablo pickups. Clean-sounding, with plenty of chime, the Tomatillo pickups are crafted around alnico 2 magnets, simulating what an aged alnico 5 pickup from the '50s might sound like today. ½ blender wiring turns the second tone control into a blend pot while the pickup switch is in Position 1 and 2, allowing you to mix the neck pickup in, shaping your tone to precisely match your taste.
