An interesting development.

Thanks for posting this here Dave... so far I've only heard secondhand news and the grumbling/rumblings over at Talkbass about it. 

saw this some time ago and thought aboot posting it.  then somethin else happened, so i didn't.  just what we need.  something else turned into another f3nd3r mass market outlet even tho they say it won't be (get yer strats - $249!) .  my $0.02 USD fwiw.  imho.  ymmv.  yadda yadda.  good luck to all!

Reverb had outstanding customer service until Etsy bought it.  You could call them up and an actual human being would answer the phone and provide help.   Then a complete 180 under Etsy.   Fender can't be any worse.

Bill, tgo

But I have doubts it will ever return to it's original glory when it was an adjunct to Chicago Music Exchange.
