    I have been playing for 23 years and have owned many Fenders - American, Mexican, and started on a Squire back in the day. My wife got me a 75th Anniversary Fender American Original 60s for my 40th birthday and it's the best one yet. Fender builds some amazing guitars and every now and then you come across an absolute gem that is a cut above the rest.

    Such a roundabout way of saying they used popular vehicle paint colours. They used the 58 caddie paint on the lake placid blue with mint pickguard strat and then there was Olympic white and shell pink among others but as paint changed so too did the finish in guitars. Now it's more common to find a poly finish on guitars as it made them more durable and less susceptible to UV damage like nitro lacquer will yellow and checker as it cracks and that barrier breaks whereas poly doesnt dry up and it keeps that constant barrier so long as you dont ding it on anything.

    Don’t buy a painted Fender as you could end up with multiple piece body. Make sure it’s a natural finish not even a sunburst because they put ply on the back and front. Then the join is hidden around the perimeter. The machine does a good job hiding this. Fender even confirmed this in an email I received. You only get a 2 or 3 piece body on high end and custom shop models. Buy a fender at your own risk.

      That’s a lie! Gipson is much older than Fender and they make fine instruments as well. Unlike Fender 100% of Gipson’s are made in the USA as well! I like both guitars just as many others do but they’re completely different sounding and playing instruments, the only thing they really have in common is that they’re both electric guitars.
