Fender Musical Instruments Corporation Reviews 360

Had a minor issue with some Fender strings I bought from my local guitar store. Wrote an inquiry to Fender and received a reply from Caesar Tapia. Caesar responded professionally and courteously and even offered to send out some replacements. Now that’s customer service! Thanks Caesar and FMIC! 👍🏼

During the 2026 Presidents Sale at Fender, I decided to order not one, but two of the discounted Vintera II basses: a 60’s Precision in Olympic White and a 70’s Telecaster Bass in Seafoam Green.

Immediately after ordering I had reached out to Fender Customer relations to see if lighter and more nicely figured necks could be shipped.

Upon receipt of the two instruments, I was beyond pleased! Both are light with wonderful neck figuring and played beautifully right out of the box!

The Precision reminds me of a CIJ 80’s Oly/rose that I got from Talkbass years ago and has long since left the stable. From playing Fender 5 string Precisions over the last ~10 years in church, the wider nut on this rosewood board is a dream to play. Lightweight, beautiful rosewood slab board and a pure creamy dreamy classic look and feel that makes her a joy to play!

I had previously owned CIJ ’51 and ’53 Sting re-issues that in hindsight, had regretted selling . When this Telecaster Bass popped up with the similar visual vibe at the price point, I had to go for her, and I am so glad I did! She’s downright beautifully sexy in Seafoam Green and I love the thicker front to back feel of the deep C neck profile Of course, the headstock shape is the total bomb. I just love the simple elegance of this instrument, and the non-sculpted slab body is a nice reminder to stay healthy in the abs area! One of the Youtube reviewers of this bass commented on how responsive the bass is to plucking hand placement, and I could not agree more!

The fit/finish on both instruments are excellent and very pleased with pulling the trigger on these.

I really can not keep my hands off these two beauties and bringing them into the family has inspired more practicing time!

Well done Fender!

Sincerely,

Der Shop ist großartig.
Unglaublich schnelle Lieferung und zwar bei allen Bestellungen.

Wenn etwas beim Transport passiert oder ein Instrument Mängel hat, kümmert sich der Kundenservice schnell und persönlich - ehrlich und auch mit Selbstironie - Das ist fantastisch.

Also Fender… Beste Instrumente seit 1950 und tolles Team im EU Shop 75 Jahre später.

Danke für die Musik(instrumente)

Fantastic customer service. I had a 10ft cable go out and verified with a tester the hit was bad. They quickly replied and offered to send a replacement. Very satisfied.

I recently reached out to Fender Customer Support because I needed assistance with a Certificate of Authenticity for my 1954 Fender Stratocaster 50th Anniversary Masterbuilt limited release guitar. I honestly expected a long complicated corporate process, but the team absolutely knocked it out of the park. They walked me through exactly what documentation and photos I needed to provide, kept me updated on the status and resolved everything much faster than I anticipated. A new COA is on its way. A massive thank you to the Senior Consumer Relations Representative Nathan Jones for treating my issue with such care and concern. I also want to thank his team member Shane Farmer for outstanding customer service as well as Willy, Will, Kane, Joe, Madi and others. I am extremely proud to be a Fender guitar owner.

After 17 years of solid service my Fender jack cable stopped working. Fortunately I still had the original invoice. I emailed Fender and had a replacement cable within a few days, free of charge!

I wrote Fender about the very sweet sounding Princeton Recording tube Amplifier I recently acquired, which unfortunately did not have the four button foot switch which came with the amp when it was new. The only place anywhere that I could find that was selling one of these foot switches was a store in Canada, which does not ship to the US where I live. In response to my question about whether Fender had any other ideas where I might find one of these foot switches, customer service representative Kane Kitchen did an extensive search for me, finding a few stores which had sold the switch in the past, but no longer had them and also coming up with that store in Canada as the only place anywhere where one of the switches could now be found. Knowing that Fender was also not aware of any other switch available anywhere, and knowing that the Canadian store only had one, I went to greater lengths to find some way to purchase that one foot switch. Thank you, Kane!

Very efficient organization. The person that answered the phone was helpful, explained the process and followed through the the complete transaction. Will be a Fender customer for ever.

When a local guitar shop decided to take a chisel to my Japanese Fender Jag 50s Vintage Reissue (note, these parts are impossible to find outside out Japan), Fender had my back. Bradley Shelton quickly got in touch with the fine folks at Fender Japan and had replacement parts shipped to me at no charge. I cannot overstate how impressed I am with Fender's customer service, and moving forward, Fender will be my first choice for any equipment. Hats off to the phenoms at Fender support, and massive shout out to my man Bradley for being such an awesome guy.

I had a hiccup over a missing item from a delivered order. I contacted Fender, explained the issue and the problem was quickly resolved. Great service (from Louis at Fender). I will have no hesitation in ordering directly from them again. Thank you Fender!

I can’t think of any product or brand, where there isn’t a risk of the product or service experiencing an issue. Things happen. Few if any are infallible. So I have to say, Fender recently blew me away with their service and support on an issue I had with my amp. They totally exceeded my expectations demonstrating exactly why they’re a top brand.

Assistant was very kind, informative, and helpful

So, I contacted Fender customer services in the UK to see if they could help me find a way to repair my Fender guitar case latch which had broken off and also to see if they could direct me to where I could get a replacement key for the locking latch.
I got a really prompt reply from Sam at Fender. Sam was able to direct me to links for places where I could obtain replacement latches online and was ever so apologetic that they didn't sell or supply them directly themselves. In terms of the keys for the lock, Sam took my details and posted me out a replacement with no charge. I could tell he'd have loved to have been able to supply the latch too. Excellent customer care even nearly 12 years after the sale of the instrument. Thank you Fender and thank you Sam 🙏🏻✨

I am an inventor of guitar designs and modifications. For this reason, my evaluation is from a professional point of view. As usual, Fenders willingness to satisfy and assist their customer base is nothing less than outstanding. Today I had to speak with Ceasar who was Above and Beyond all expectations. All at Fender have been incredible. Extremely easy to access them and always solves any issue needed. From a qualified professional point of view, I cannot give them anything less than A+. If you haven’t tried a Fender yet or are a newcomer, I highly recommend Fender. They are absolutely Number one for a reason. Thanks to all at Fender for your relentless quest for our industry.
All the best. Bob Oberg.. Tptcustomguitars

I had specific concerns and questions about details of some products (ie. if my Jazzmaster could fit in the presented gigbags // if the Fender LSR Roller nut was compatible with my guitar...). Therefore I contacted the support who was always reactive, quick and kind to answer and always provided me with tips and tricks.
Thank you very much Sam for your support!

A few of the tuning keys on my Vintera Bass VI were extremely difficult to turn, and one had completely failed. Luckily it was still under warranty, and after contacting Consumer Relations about the issue, Will replied the same day (on a Sunday, no less!) and a set of replacement tuners arrived on Tuesday. The new tuners work great and I couldn't be happier. Big thanks to the Consumer Relations & Shipping Team for the incredible service!

Your employee Will, amazing guy. Anything I needed he responded to me quickly and appropriately. Explained all the actions I could take on an instrument exchange. Very easy going and very professional guy.

I had an outstanding customer service experience with Fender thanks to Will D. and the support team. I purchased an amp from Guitar Center nearly six months ago and recently ran into a fault issue. From the moment I reached out, Will handled everything smoothly, professionally, and without any hassle.

The process was quick, clear, and customer-focused. There was no runaround, no unnecessary back and forth, just straightforward support and a solution. It honestly could not have been a better experience.

Customer service like this is exactly why I will continue to invest in Fender products, even when there may be opportunities to save a few dollars buying elsewhere. Standing behind your product and taking care of customers matters, and Fender absolutely delivered.

I love my amp but custom service is better than I could imagine. Wasn't easy to get my amp running but with professional help we did it. Thank You once more!

After 6 years my fender reverb de luxe tone master suddenly broke down. The 2 year warrenty was expired. The store where i bought the amp could not or would not help me.
I contacted the Fender support team. After a evaluation they decided to repair the amp under warrenty. They even paid for the transport. The amp is in full working order again.
Top service!
