:?: Does anyone here remember a posible saying by Leo Fender telling someone "it's a hammer ______, it's just a hammer."

First of all, is it true? If so, what was the situation, and who was he talking to/with?

He also talked about how he hated people buying his guitars and putting them under glass.

So I said, “Ok, it’s going to get really beat up,” and he said, “It’s just a hammer, Dale. A hammer.’

“And that’s what I had them put on the neck plate of the new American Design Tele I just ordered: ‘Custom Made for Dale Watson.’ And underneath that, ‘It’s just a hammer’.”

Hammer being analogous with tool.

It's a tool.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.
