History of the Fender Guitar

One of the most popular guitar companies and definitely one of the most influential contributions ever in modern music was the Fender guitar. With the introduction of these solid body electric guitars, basses and amplifiers, Fender helped the smaller bands be heard in bigger venues a lot better than using acoustic instruments. The inventor of the Fender guitar, Leo Fender,guitar developed a solid-body guitar in 1951 called the Broadcaster. Fender went out and asked professional guitarists and Fender staff what they wanted in a so he could improve the Telecaster.  


Guitars and Basses were not all that Fender produced during this time. A group of investors and Fender employees purchased the Fender Company and put William Schultz in charge. With the ownership including people that have such a passion for guitars, like the Fender employees, Fender got even better.

The Fender Custom Shop is located in Corona, California where they make custom guitars for professional guitar players and guitar enthusiasts. Fender still thinks like this today and continue to give their customers the best Fender guitar that they can make.
