Hey, I was wondering if Fender takes guitar designs for Jackson because I have made a lot of guitar designs based off of Fender, Jackson, and some I made up myself.

Most companies that deal in intellectual property don't accept any kind of unsolicited conceptual submissions because they don't feel like getting sued. If the company has a stated policy that they just don't ever look at unsolicited submissions, then they're better protected against claims that they've stolen someone's concept.

So, I can't speak for Fender, but I can make an educated guess that they don't accept any unsolicited designs.

Companies almost have to have those sort of policies. TV shows do too.

If you really want to see those designs made, I would recommend taking course in design and woodworking, etc, and try to get a job working in the guitar industry where you'd be in a position to use them. Or gain some experience and go into business for yourself. It may take longer, and be more work, but if it's dream to see the deigns used--go for it.

But you can have your own body design on a one-off master built guitar for your personal use,right?

Fender needs to steal some of the gibson ideas and make a flying V or an explorer.or make a cool custom.

If you have the cash you may be able to get one made through the custom shop?
