I have been to the offices for Fender in Scottsdale and it is really a cool place to see.
You always hear about these places where there is such a good atmosphere for those that work there and this must be one of those places.
The pictures, autographed guitars and equipment is just amazing.


Unless I have missed it but how is Fender capitalizing on the Guitar Hero craze?
Keep up the good work.

Hi MGB, and welcome to the forum.

Fender licenses its designs and logo to the Rock Band video game. If you spend enough time on the forum, you'll see images from that game.

I will warn you that you'll get some very passionate opinions on this site about Guitar Hero and Rock Band. Some here think they're cool, and others think they're the most disgusting affront to musicianship ever. Otherwise we're a pretty mellow bunch.

Have fun! 8)

Welcome to the forum.

If you look at the 2009 Kickoff event that Fender is having at NAMM this week, one of the videoes is of the Rockband 2 stage - http://www.fender.com/video/index.php?video=16 - notice that the Guitar Controllers are Fender based ones :shock:
