Hello there,

long time no read

Does anybody here has made experiences with this ?

It's not available in germany.... so I might need some help here

I think we have had several members do the Fender ADE with mixed results.
Try doing a search on that (ADE or American Design Experience).

It was an embarrassing disaster. There's a huge thread here. Not recommended at all.

Matt is the reason Fender doesn't want to deal with lefties anymore. God forbid their customers have any standards.

Haha! There were actually douchebags on Talkbass who suggested I was the problem after multiple fuck ups on Fender's part.

The link that someone posted above is about a totally different subject. My experience is posted toward the end.

By the way, I went through this fiasco AGAIN this year. I'll elaborate later when I have time.

If that someone was me, it was merely a subtle suggestion that the OP might have more luck closer to home.

And I hate to be that guy, but he may also want to take a look at G&L.

By the way, that's a messed-up story, Matt. It's ironic that I live and die by cheap-ass guitars and have never had to deal with any quality issues like that. If I ever spend that kind of money, I would be out of my mind if it was any less than an A+ experience.

I understand. And speaking of cheap stuff, I've had better experiences with Squiers. Haha

WOW ... that sounds horrible

What's going on in this facory ??? I thought made in USA is sth. like you can rely on

Joined a band last night, jammed with my Squier VM70 Jazz. Guys were like, "No way in hell that's a Squier". Company really stepped it's game up in the past decade or two, I guess!

Neither lefty or bass, but a friend recently ordered a custom Martin. Wong color hardware, and the electronics had to be replaced within weeks. Kept draining the battery.
