A brief history about From modest beginnings in 1946 to its current status as A brief history about From modest beginnings in 1946 to its current status as a cultural icon, Fender has touched and transformed music worldwide and in every genre: rock ‘n’ roll, country, jazz, rhythm and blues and everything in between. From beginners and hobbyists to the world’s most acclaimed artists, musicians have used Fender instruments to bring their dreams to life while changing the world along the way. In the 1940 s, Southern California inventor Clarence “Leo” Fender, a modest inventor and businessman with a special skill for electronics, founded the company. In 1954, Fender released what would become the most popular, recognizable and influential electric guitar of all time—the Stratocaster ®. With Fender guitars in the hands of artists such as Buddy Holly, Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix to name only a few, entirely new genres of music took shape. Indeed, more popular music during the past 50 years has been made and played on the Stratocaster than on any other electric instrument.
