Fender Guitars

Not sure how I managed to miss this one but the new Richie Kotzen TLR-RK/LTD Signature Telecaster is now available from Fender Japan. Check out the photos, spec and video demo…

Fender have introduced a new series of vintage guitars called the Pawn Shop Series. Specifically the Fender 51, Fender 72 and Mustang Special. These instruments draw inspiration from the eccentric and sometimes wildly innovative Fender creations of the mid-60s to mid-70s era that sometimes found their way to the outside world and into the more esoteric pages of Fender history

Fender continued it’s successful partnership with Slipknot/Stone Sour guitarist Jim Root in 2010 with the introduction of the Jim Root Stratocaster guitar.

The Fender Highway One Stratocaster is basically a good value Fender strat featuring super-size frets, ’70s styling and new alnico pickups. The Highway One series when it was introduced in 2000 was a cheap entry point into the USA range of instruments by Fender and featured simple, almost ‘bare bones’ strats and Telecasters. As Fender puts it “Highway One is about function over looks” and make no mistake your getting plenty of tone for your money here.
