I think Fender checks out this forum

[Securb]

It would not be a surprise that the marketing people from major music companies check out the forum. However, I am blown away that Fender just released on a Tele that is spot on with my custom paint.

EDIT: It also has the locking tuners, modern bridge and push pull tone.

It's a sweet color. I see why they'd copy it.

Well, one of the guys on the Europe team hosts the Guitar Nerds podcast and Facebook group. They love Shell Pink and look at all the FSR Sell Pink stuff the last three years.

Is that a Flake or Metallic green?

They'd be crazy not to keep tabs on some of the forums.

I like that colour!

Cosmic Jade. Its a really cool colour, I've seen two of them IRL and for the first time in my life I actually wanted a Fender.

It is a very fine flake

Yep, but it is not just the color the push-pull tone, locking tuners, and modern bridge seem to be a bit more than a coincidence.

If there is a Fender rep here, I don't know about it. Still, I know a lot of other companies that interact with The Gear Page, for better or worse. As a rep from SD, I've been on other forums answering questions about our pickups.

Gibson gives no F's what you forum people think.

Isn't Henry gone now?

 

[JamesPaul]

Totally posting without reading the content. Where is Fender's Forum today? Right, gone. thank you Seymour!

Meh...don't be so blown away by that. There are literally hundreds of tele copies from dozens of brands from Japan, China and Korea, many of them way better than the originals. Yours isn't really far off the typical tele. My Schecter PT has push/ pull ffs.

Even the green is different, based on the photos above. Yours is similar to Steve VAI's Jem, while Fender version looks more metallic.

 

[Aceman]

But you are on their payroll as a consultant, right?

I wouldn't last 10 seconds in that gig. There would be a LOT of "F's" given...right out of my mouth at the client.

I still like to imagine things that would send him round the bend.

Henry lost his marbles when he was still the head of Gibson. It's why he's off somewhere counting his money and mumbling to himself.

I’d watch the documentary.
