I heard that there's a significant stock problem and that the planned March release has been delayed by 3-7 months. Is this true? Why would there be a delay this significant for something made on an assembly line? Is it even coming out?
I've been waiting 20 years for this and was really hoping to have one in March.

There was a discussion on the Vintage Modified series just about a week ago; they seem to be on "NOTIFY ME WHEN IN STOCK" state. ( https://forums.fender.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=113459 )

And now, checking the product pages after your message, the same applies to all Classic Vibe models, too. Righties and lefties alike.

AFAIK and as usual, there is no official info on the situation, so it's just 'wait and see'.

Really glad I didn't order replacement pickups yet. I guess I'll just have to wait and see if anything actually comes out. Definitely not paying 4 times more for the American Professional.

Still have not received the guitar. Retailer says they were told by Fender that they are now backordered at least another month. No answer from Fender Customer Service other than claiming that they are not responsible for, nor do they keep track of their own supply chain. They just deflected, blamed their retailers and refused to answer any questions. Apparently, some suppliers are getting them and others aren't which makes me think that Fender is unfairly prioritizing orders based on retailer regardless of when the order was actually placed (in this case, a pre-order).
