Fender Custom Shop LTD Tomatillo Stratocaster Journeyman Tomatillo Green (053)

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.
