While details on the Rarities collection are currently scarce, we do know the nine models were crafted in Corona, California and feature maple, ash and koa-topped bodies. Elsewhere, the Rarities feature premium pickups, high-end finishes and special electronics.
“We’re very excited to showcase one of our most diverse electrics offerings at Winter NAMM,” said Max Gutnik, VP of Fender Electric Guitars, Basses & Amplifiers. “… Our limited-edition Rarities guitars are crafted from exotic woods, with high-end finishes and electronics to create an extraordinary line of instruments for the most discerning player. As our electrics lineup continues to evolve, we look forward to players of all genres and backgrounds making music as inspired and imaginative as the instruments themselves.”
