Unboxing Fender guitars are some of my fondest memories. The perfect melding of art and functionality, past and present.

Thanks John, We agree, opening up a new guitar is a great experience. Thanks for taking the time to write.

The “tweed” guitar strap arrived and I love it. It’s smart looking, makes it easy on my back and shoulders when playing and fits with all the guitars I play. Shipping was really quick too! I know when I buy ANYTHING from Fender, the quality is always there.

Thanks for the review, Jim. The strap is an essential component to the guitar playing experience. Glad it worked out so well for you.

I’ve bought so many Fender guitars and amps it’s hard to remember them all but one thing I’ll always remember, “Go to the Source.” Every time I order directly from Corona, CA I have the greatest experience possible! Great product not Demo’d, like new and ready to be played!!!!! Thank you for all the great years from when I was 13 to now at 67. Over 50 years! I’ve never wavered because Fender has never wavered from providing me a quality product. Thank you Fender for all the years here in So Cal. I’ve loved all the strats and teles and amps. I always have been a Fender man.

I love Fender products from picks to straps to amps to guitars. I own 5 Fender guitars (American, Mexican and a Tom Delong Starcaster) which I play through my Deluxe Reverb Tone Master.

We really appreciate you being part of the Fender family. Time to make room for that 6th Fender!

Ordering directly from Fender was the way to go. I got an unbelievable deal and amazing customer service (and not overseas, for what that's worth). Super impressed. I've played guitar most of my life but my appreciation for Fender has really grown recently. Keep up the great work!

Everything I have ever ordered from Fender has been excellent! The instruments always arrive in excellent condition, and always have a great Set Up out of the box! USA Fenders will always be my favorite Bass Guitars from Studio to Stage.

I ordered a mod shop strat, and there were issues in the build and there service dept was amazing and went above and beyond. I couldn’t be happier with my guitar and with the service I received.

Thanks Robert. Mod Shop is an awesome concept and they are made with the same care and detail in the same Corona California factory as our other USA made instruments. Glad you're enjoying it.

Bought an American Ultra II. Delivered by Fedex so great shipping and all in perfect orde. I could tell the guitar was inspected pre-shipping, well tuned half step down and standard string height which I like. Comes with a Fender Certrificate to register for warranty online. Hardshell case will come in handy for traveling safely with it.
