AT WORK
| Fender guitars are the stuff legends are made of.
And CORIAN® is the stuff Fender chose to fabricate the most fanciful guitars
in history. Because they're made with CORIAN®, these remarkable instruments
aren't merely museum pieces but fully functional instruments. That even surprised their
creator, Fred Stuart, master guitar builder at the Fender Custom Shop in Corona,
California. "When I set out to create the first of these showcase guitars, I frankly didn't care what it was going to sound like because we were going for an artistic statement. When I got the first guitar finished and played on it, I was really surprised: It sounded exactly like a guitar that was made out of wood. "The difference is, with CORIAN® the tone is predictable. Wood varies with every piece of wood and you have to trust your experience to predict how it's going to sound. With CORIAN®, the tone is consistent, instrument to instrument. "We just turned down $75,000 for one of these guitars." |
