I saw the advertisement on the inside back cover of my Frontline catalog. I'm relatively new to guitar and I can't really imagine what they might offer. Anyone care to speculate? It says " Educating the world one riff at a time". It sounds like a music school. I wonder if it will be online also. Do you think they built a campus?

I went to the link which they gave. It's probably just going to be a collection of online riffs and such. If they were actually making a school, there would be much more publicity. It is probably just another feature for the site to help educate guitarists and give lesson etc.

On August 21, 2008 Fender will officially open our doors to 35 "students" who will attend the first session of Fender University. This 4-day program will take place at the Fender Center in Corona and in the surrounding area. This music education program includes tours of our factory and Custom Shop, as well as clinics with some of Fender's friends like John 5. The experience will be like no other! Pre-registration is now open and you can find out about the entire program by visiting www.fender.com/university

There's another, more informative thread already posted about Fender University here -- check it out for all the details! And yes, it's more than just a website -- it's a killer event that we're putting together.
