A Message from the Chairman

At Fender, we know the importance of sound reinforcement.  From the simple
box-top powered mixer to today’s touring concert systems, the need to
communicate to make the connection between the performer and the
audience is foremost in our mind.

Perhaps no other piece of gear can make or break your message or your band’s
sound than your sound reinforcement gear.  Your sound system is far more than
just a combination of dials, wires and speakers.  It is an integral part of the audio
chain and should be treated with special care and attention to detail.

Fender knows what building quality musical instruments and sound
reinforcement equipment is all about.  In fact, many of the world’s best
sounding electric musical instruments and sound reinforcement equipment
proudly wear the Fender name. 

Whether you need a small powered mixer for your Saturday afternoon “jam” or
a professional full-size concert system, Fender has the sound reinforcement
gear to meet your needs.  Likewise, your decision to purchase quality Fender
Professional Audio Equipment is one you will appreciate with each
performance for years to come.

Wishing you years of enjoyment and a heartfelt 

thank you

,

Bill Schultz
Chairman of the Board
Fender Musical Instruments Corporation
