Fender Hosts Dealers to Sydney
The new management team of Fender Australia was on show November 30, as well as plenty of new products. Asia Chief, Bud Cole and Mark Van Vleet from FMC were in attendance along with new General Manager, Mark Amory and some 170 dealers and their staff. In keeping with Fender’s on time global release objectives, (and there were some products being shown for the first in the world to local dealers), there was plenty of interest. An impressive array of custom shop guitars and basses drew attention. The night rounded out with a lively Jam featuring dealers proving they’re not just selling the stuff.
