Not a hoax, this time.

BAM!

They're doing LH 50's and 60's Strats and a 50's Tele!

Er, they've pretty much always done those exact three guitars in LH in the US. I won't buy them because I hate those three guitar styles, that's all I've had offered to me by FMIC for decades.

I fucking hate Fender. I love their designs but I hate the company so hard. This is just like spitting in my face. "Oh hey, see we like you lefties! Here's some new lefty guitars for ya! Granted, they are the exact same three guitars we've been shitting out in left handed for over a decade, but we are really trying!"


Fuck you, Fender.

Yeah, now I remember. This seemed familiar but I couldn't place it.

I have been able to buy these same three guitars from Fender Mexico here for over a decade. I don't want these, at all.

Is it really too much to ask that they do something fucking different with these, just once? I'm not really even asking for much, just a rosewood fretboard on a fucking Tele. I can sand the neck down to my tastes myself. Just give me something, anything, different.

I still fucking hate FMIC.

Fuck you, Fender.

I figured I'd follow up to show why exactly I'm pissed.

Look at that. That's the only 13 Fender's I can get.

I can get:

1. Strat with rosewood fretboard
2. Strat with maple fretboard
3. Tele with maple fretboard

At varying price points, and that includes the Squier line.

To reiterate, in case anyone missed this part:
Man, fuck you, Fender
