75th

The Fender 75th commemorative anniversary models were over & done with. These were made in limited quantities for sale in 2021.

These instruments are readily recognized by two special features; the 75th commemorative logo embossed at the rear of the headstock & a similar one engraved on the neck's bolt plate. Also, the serial numbers of these instruments indicate a 2020 - 2021 year of manufacture. If any Fender instruments bear any of these features, these are the official commemorative models.

In that same year of manufacture, Fender stamped other non-commemoorative models with the Fender 75 logo which caused confusion somewhat. We can see this on Mexican & Japanese Fenders as well & they are just there to mark the occasion, nothing else.

Drawing this to your attention because there are individuals out there who believe they are selling a 75th but in fact they are not.
