2011 : So much fail

[wilkinsi]

We all know that the word "Fender" will be of a certain importance following what I'm going to say.

WR1 in Orange is long gone.

These peeps have one:

RR5FR competes with every USA RR/RR Pro on the used market. Tough sell. KE5FR competes w/ KE2/Pro, etc.

As far as the WR1, in general I am surprised & happy that they keep that line alive at all. The most extreme body shape they have IMO.

Not everything is going to stay as a feature. The great news is if you want anything bad enough, well, then you have a goal.

I find it far more annoying that they decided to discontinue the DK2M and RR24M. Bring back the maple, dammit.

This is easy. Nobody wants these guitars. Jackson guitars are about as desirable as George Bush at a lesbian rally.

The good news is that these guitars have terrible resale value so you should have no problem scoring one used for a good price.

Did they not sell because people didn't want them, or because they were too expensive? My vote goes to number two.

A little of both.

Nope. He's annoying like that.

I think just because they arent in the price list doesnt mean they arent there, ive seen guitars that arent in he price list for the past 3 years. also everything has to change.

I feel your pain bro. I went to the Chevy dealership yesterday and was going to pay cash for a yellow C4 ZR1 vette and the assholes told me they stopped making them in 1995. Whattabunchadicks.

GOD, that made me laugh so hard, dude. LOL!

I understand the complaint, but what are you gonna do? I wanted a KV2 in silver, but they didn't have any silver finishes in April 07, so I bought it in black. At winter NAMM 07/08, they introduced Quicksilver. FUCK, ME, RUNNIN'!

We all know that the word "Fender" will be of a certain importance following what I'm going to say.

I've just watched the catalog and price list, SO AWFUL. Most of my favourite things have disappeared. The RR5FR for example, I wanted a pink one SO MUCH, now I'll have to either order it from the CS for 5 grand, or buy it as a reguler RR5 without the Floyd. The Black/Yellow RR24, which was one of the most sought after ones. WR1 in Orange is long gone, SL1 in Nebula is gone, the KE5FR is gone, you get the point.


FENDER, WHAT THE FRIGGIN FUCK ARE YOU DOING TO US ? KILLING THE BEST HEAVY GUITAR MANUFACTURER IN THE WHOLE FUCKING BUSINESS ?




Share ya thoughts.

How many people out there do you think are in the market for a pink "Vinnie Vincent" guitar, aside from yourself?

As for a "nebula" finish, I think nebulas definitely look cool, but there ain't no way in Hell I'd want my guitar finished in a nebula graphic. IMO, it's almost as bad as that cartoonish "pile of skulls" finish.

Okay, I'm just gonna come clean here. I think all of those "graphics finishes" are cheesy, save for the "Bolted Steel" finish on the USA Select Warrior. While those "graphics finishes" are cool, IMO, the artwork suffers because they're replicated on such a number of guitars. For instance, the finish with the pile of skulls on it looks cool from yards away, but up close, there's not much detail.

Yeah, you're right, bolted steel falls under the "Gay" category
