Fender at Kirstein – electric guitars, basses and amplifiers
Leo Fender founded Fender in 1946 and had a lasting influence on the development of modern popular music with his instruments. The Precision Bass appeared in 1951 and made an electrically amplified, fretted bass available in a portable solidbody format. The Stratocaster followed in 1954. Together with the Telecaster, Jazzmaster, Jaguar, Precision Bass and Jazz Bass, these designs remain important pillars of the Fender range today. When choosing an instrument, it therefore makes sense to start with the instrument type, playing feel and desired sound: a Stratocaster offers different ergonomics and pickup configurations from a Telecaster, while the Precision Bass and Jazz Bass each have their own playing feel and tonal concept.
Player II, Made in Japan and American Professional Classic
The Fender Player II Series is aimed at musicians who want to combine classic Fender shapes with contemporary playability. Typical features include Modern C neck profiles, 9.5-inch-radius fingerboards with rolled fingerboard edges and Player Series Alnico pickups. The series includes a variety of familiar Fender guitar and bass designs, making it suitable for many styles and applications, from a first band project to regular stage and studio work.
Fender Made in Japan is less a single series than a distinct product world within the Fender range. It includes Traditional and Hybrid II models as well as selected Artist and Limited editions. These instruments combine familiar Fender designs with Japanese manufacturing traditions and are particularly interesting for players looking specifically for model variations, specifications or versions outside the regular US and Mexican ranges.
Another important product line is the Fender American Professional Classic Series. Fender introduced the series in 2025 as an extension of the American Professional family. Vintage-inspired Coastline pickups are combined with modern neck profiles and classically styled hardware. The concept includes both guitars and basses, including Stratocaster, Telecaster, Precision Bass, Jazz Bass and Mustang Bass models. The series therefore particularly appeals to musicians looking for a US-made Fender that combines classic aesthetics with modern everyday usability.
Fender Custom Shop – instruments for the highest demands
The Fender Custom Shop occupies a special position. Since 1987, exceptional Fender guitars and basses have been created at the Custom Shop in Corona, California, in both Masterbuilt and Teambuilt versions. Master Builders, technicians and other specialised craftspeople produce historical interpretations as well as limited and individually conceived instruments. Players looking specifically for distinctive Stratocaster, Telecaster or bass versions, elaborate ageing concepts or carefully selected specifications will find the most exclusive level of Fender instrument building in the Custom Shop.
Fender amplifiers and accessories for guitar and bass
In addition to instruments, the Fender world also includes amplifiers. From compact modelling amps to classic tube combos, Fender covers different requirements for practice, recording, rehearsal rooms and stages. Well-known product families and models include Mustang, Tone Master, Blues Junior, Princeton and Deluxe. Important selection criteria include required power, amplifier design, desired clean headroom, overdrive behaviour and the connections you need.
Suitable guitar & bass accessories also play an important role in the Fender range. These include straps, cables, picks, gig bags, cases, hardware and other practical additions. When buying a new electric guitar or bass, it is worth considering transport, care, the connection to the amplifier and your personal playing routine at the same time.
Further guitar brands in the FMIC portfolio
Fender Musical Instruments Corporation operates a portfolio of owned and licensed brands alongside Fender, each with different areas of focus. Squier brings familiar Fender concepts to more accessible guitars and basses. Charvel focuses strongly on performance-oriented electric guitars, while Jackson is particularly at home in rock and metal. EVH combines guitars and amplifiers with the musical and technical legacy of Eddie Van Halen. Gretsch Guitars is also part of the FMIC portfolio as a licensed brand, complementing the selection with characteristic Hollow Body, Center Block and Jet concepts, among others.
