The candy apple red Fender Modern Player Coronado I ordered 12 weeks ago to the day has finally shipped! I don't no why it took Fender 3 months to deliver these to the retailer, but I was literally within minutes of canceling the purchase and buying a non Fender family competitor when I received a email saying it has been shipped. Why do they advertise something they can't deliver and still no cases. :?

You're doing very well. A couple of years ago I orderd a '57VHR Strat in April. I took delivery of it in December. I learned that priority in manufacture has everything to do with volume of orders and for what models. They held off the vintage runs until late in the year.

Your order may have hit at a time when the production was set for different Axes in the run. Sometimes 12 weeks isn't that long to have to wait from a manufacturer either.
