This stunned me.

I played a Tele through four years of high school jazz band back in the 70's. I've played Fender guitars and amps for over 35 years. I have 8 Fender guitar guitars and 4 Fender tube amps (no big deal......I'm older.....been a loyal Fender ethusiast for a long time).

Makes me feel bad to see the Fender logo connected to this design.

Not cool (I think). I can appreciate being a rebel and an artist but the face graphic and verbiage together seem pretty sad.

I guess my late/middle age is showing.

Really made me feel bad.

Given the present leadership or lack there of in this country and the discouraging prospects from the other party I find this both appropriate and prophetic.

I don't have a problem with the design. However, I feel paintings/graffiti/stickers/doodles/phone numbers/etc... on guitars or any instrument are much more meaningful when they are put on by the artist himself rather than by computer graphic software/printers owned by FMIC or any other guitar/musical instrument company. Oh well, if it sells it sells.

In 1970, Gil Scott Heron wrote a famous song called 'The Revolution Will Be Televised.'

In 1980-whatever, MTV came along and made those lyrics come true.

That proved so commercially successful that everyone got into the act.

And now, (wait for it...)

The Revolution Is Being Merchandised (That way, the Man gets cut).
