Fender Ford Mustang Press Release
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE November 23, 1999
FENDER & FORD FEEL RHYTHM OF THE ROAD
SCOTTSDALE, AZ -
Two of America's most famous companies and endeared cultural icons have recently
teamed up to celebrate a very special birthday. Fender Musical Instruments
Corporation, maker of the famed Stratocaster ® electric guitar, and Ford Motor
Company have gotten together to hit the road in honor of the 35th anniversary of
Ford's first Mustang. J. Walter Thompson, one of the oldest and most successful
advertising agencies in the world, brought the two companies together for the
Mustang "Rhythm of the Road" tour, a fifteen-date music extravaganza featuring
The Cranberries, Collective Soul and Fender's traveling interactive music
exhibit, The Roadhouse. As part of the celebration, Fender's Custom Shop created
thirty-five limited edition chrome Stratocaster guitars, and Ford kicked in one
very souped-up, custom-made 1999 Mustang GT convertible that was customized by Classic Design
Concepts. The custom Strats are chromed aluminum guitars, and feature "Running
Mustang" inlays on their ebony fingerboards. To top that, Fender added an
original Mustang emblem just behind the tailpiece, and original Mustang radio
knobs for the volume and tone controls. Fifteen of the guitars went to lucky
concert -goers, one for each stop of the tour, while one very special winner
took home the Mustang. The car is painted a brilliant Silver Metallic to match
the guitar. The racing stripes down both of its sides resemble the guitar's
fingerboard, complete with its "Racing Mustang" inlays, and are capped off with
a classic Fender Stratocaster headstock design. There's also an original Fender
amplifier logo on the Mustang's tonneau cover, which when opened reveals two
built-in and fully playable Fender Amp Can amplifiers that are powered by the
car's battery. Classic Design Concepts also added Torq-Thrust II wheels, and a
CDC lightbar to their very unique, one-off custom job. This is the first
promotional alliance between the Fender and Ford, but representatives from both
companies are looking forward to working together in the future.
This guitar was made by Fender in conjunction
with Ford Motor Company to commemorate the 35th anniversary of the legendary
Ford Mustang. Only 35 were ever made and only 15 were released to the public.
This guitar is in immaculate condition. The
body is mirror -polished chrome with the Ford Mustang hood ornament, an integral
part and "Mustang" etched in the body. Inlaid "Ford " style running mustangs
made of MOP, Copper, Brass and Silver adorn the fret board running away from the
peg head. One volume and two tone knobs are original 1964 ˝ Mustang radio
controls! Chrome headstock plate as well. Not shown in pictures is an incredible
birds eye maple neck. This guitar is extremely difficult to photograph due to
the highly polished surface with a studio’s indirect lighting.
The case and gig bag are extremely durable.
It comes with a custom Fender cable.
Fender Custom Shop sticker, owners manual, spare set of tremolo
springs & polishing cloth.
The leather is the same color as the interior of the most sought after mustang
the 1964-1/2.

Hellecaster Guitars
Originally G&L Guitars had the Hellecasters signed as
endorsers. But back in 1998 G&L started doing things like using the USA Fender
swimming pool route under the pickups and began mass producing the guitars. I
am not sure what actually happened. I can only surmise that the members of the
Hellecasters probably noticed the difference in quality and decided to jump
ship. I know we dropped the line like a hot potato
Today Fender is actually a much better
company with a much better product than G&L.
G&L raised
their prices in an attempt to gain credibility with the yuppie buyer but they
never really did. There was a time in history that G&L built an excellent guitar
but today I am not in the least impressed with G&L.
