HC head honco, Phil O' Keefe took lots of pictures when he went to Corona recently, I figure you guys will dig this as much as me.

now this is interesting...
this mandocaster looks like it has 8 strings like a real mandolin.
I wanna see what he's gonna do to that musicmaster.

it is nice looking. I hope they bring a bunch of cool shit to NAMM this year instead of a bunch of hideous relic esquires and fretless flamed quilted birds eye jazz basses.

Very cool tour. These threads are always dangerous in that they turn me on to guitars I would have never otherwise known exist.
Must resist....

That first one is the best. The inlays on the rest of them look like shit.

FENDER HAS ALL THESE FUCKING GUITAR COLORS TOGETHER IN ONE FUCKING RACK. ALL THEY GOTTA DO IS TAKE ONE BIG FUCKING PHOTO AND MAKE A COLOR CHART WITH IT. PUSSIES

actually i think the first one was called the fender elite. the robin ford was based off that and added all the fancy shit.
this one looks like the saddles have little turn knobs on the back
