I just recieved my Fender catalog (Fender Frontline In Home) and found on the last 2 pages information about the Fender University.... I don't remember seeing any threads on it but threads pass quickly sometimes so I did a search on the phrase "Fender University" and got 858 hits. If it said Fender it was retrieved and that wasn't what I was looking for. It kills me (a little bit each time) to try to search for something because of the great number of results that are useless. I may as well just browse the entire forum and manually look for my topic. Couldn't the search function be refined? I didn't examine all 858 results I just hope I'm not double posting. Oh.... I forgot to search for this topic. Oh well.

Don't type in Fender because it searches each word individually. University would have broadened it a lot, but I understand what you mean. Fender is probably in at least half the threads on here, so thats why you got so many results. Some threads are very broad and would be impossible to find, but the search is just a tool which one can use (but most don't) to prevent duplicate threads.

I wonder if you can specify a specific phrase in search by using the quotation marks before and after the phrase.
