One of the most popular guitar companies and definitely one of the most influential contributions ever in modern music was the Fender guitar. The inventor of the Fender guitar, Leo Fender, 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 guitar 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. Some of the great guitar players that love their Fender guitars are Buddy Guy, Eric Clapton, Eric Johnson, George Harrison, Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, John 5, John Lennon, Keith Richards, Pete Townshend, Richie Kotzen, Stevie Ray Vaughn and Yngwie Malmsteen.
