Would be nice having new hardware and pickup options for the USA Ultras such as a locking Neutrik jack socket and neodymium humbuckers on certain models.

Yah....that's ugly and embarrassing. I know people are into that style/look...but Fender doesn't have to mess with it. Just my opinion.

New parallel universe guitars,
https://www.gearnews.com/namm-2020-fender-parallel-universe-volume-ii-more-weirdness/
More wierdness says it all, imo.
The offset MIJ telecaster/jazzmaster is also a new listing in the Fender products section, initially an EU only release from last year that appears to be available in the US now.

To me, Fender is fast becoming the GM of the guitar world.

What does that mean? Eventually no more Saturns, Pontiacs, Oldsmobiles, Hummers, They'll sell Opel and Saab to someone else.

Eventually they'll bring back Hummer as an acoustic brand. Holden will become strictly an importer of models from Japan or Korea. But not before a bailout called TARP.

Apologies for the rant. :lol:

Lots of pics on social media and some great looking stuff too.

As Brad put it, "TELE® MÁGICO!"

Two oldies from the late 1970s-early 1980s were added in the Player series - Lead II & III - with updates such as AlNiCo V pickups and 22-fret 9.5"-radius fingerboards. Wouldn't be surprised if Player Bullets make surface someday.

Both Morado Maverick and Swagger take a spin on two underrated models from the late 1960s - the Custom and the Swinger - featuring a pair of FilterTron humbuckers and a 22-fret ebony fingerboard, with the former sporting an Adjust-O-Matic bridge with Bigsby tremolo.

The Swagger is another TK-Masterbuilt Prestige creation since the resurrection of the Katana in 2016.

+1

The Morado Maverick is the weirdest model from that series.

I remember when they had those out in the late 80's.
