Fender 75th Anniversary Editions

Yeah, I wasn’t going to go there, but this looks like yet another Fender cash grab exploiting their own brand by producing a slightly glitzier retread of the same things they have been making for decades.

Then again I’m someone to whom “vintage” only means “old, will probably break” for most gear (with a few exceptions maybe), so I lack appreciation of this kind of thing anyway.

But then I went and looked.

If you skip the “commemorative” one, they aren’t that expensive.

And have matching headstocks.

So for those I approve :slight_smile:

$850. Color is so-so but looks sharper than the $2k “commemorative” one IMO.
