Im aware Mayer has left the fender camp so his signature guitar has been discontinued..

Musicians friend has the 3-tone listed at 1300 (GREAT DEAL) but its not in stock yet and expected to ship next month...

Is fender still producing this or just shipping out old stock?

Also worth pointing out this would be an american made guitar with some pricey pups, big dippers, might be worth it to buy it and swap the pick ups if theyre not your style IMO


can always scratch off his signature on the back of the headstock too 8)

Sometimes when companies discontinue an item they inform the dealers that "the last day to order one of this model is XXXX". Fender may have done this with the Mayer Strat - for example, if Fender told dealers the last day to order one was November 30, 2014 they would be fulfilling orders taken up through that date, and would have declined orders submitted after that date.

I would also assume that if Fender had any old stock in the warehouse they would be available to ship right away - and it would take maybe 3-4 days to get from Corona to the dealer.

Really :shock: :!: ....and after all that crap that went down in these Forums over those two guitar projects of his with the '87' and '500' units. Ufff!!! Why am I not surprised. Wonder if that idiot cover of Rolling Stone Magazine he posed so prettily for will become a collector's item. I suppose we'll have to keep an eye on eBay for those as well. :lol:
