Fender | SUMMER Releases 2021
Fender Summer Releases are Loose!
The fine folks over at Fender have not left us high & dry this Summer. Fender has a whole party of new gear and you can catch it all here at Chicago Music Exchange!
30th ANNIVERSARY SCREAMADELICA STRATOCASTER
Scottish rock band Primal Scream broke big in 1991 when they released Screamadelica, their third studio album, which blended indie rock style with acid house production to great critical acclaim. Thirty years later, Fender commemorates this essential album with the 30th Anniversary Screamadelica Stratocaster, an Alder-bodied Strat with a Modern “C”-shape maple neck, 9.5”-radius pau ferro fingerboard, medium jumbo frets, vintage-voiced alnico V single-coil pickups, a two-point synchronized tremolo, and a custom Screamadelic finish with matching pickguard, pickup covers, and knobs.
TONE MASTER® SUPER REVERB® 120V
Tube tone without the tube?! You bet. Fender adds a Super Reverb 120V combo to the Tone Master series, which replaces tube circuitry with digital processing for authentic, high-performance sound and half the original weight.

FENDER CALIFORNIA SERIES ACOUSTIC GUITARS
FENDER REDONDO MINI ACOUSTIC
Fender reimagines their popular Redondo acoustic, part of the California Series, with a new 22.75 scale length for a compact, comfortable playing experience that’s still full like a Fender. The bright, blonde spruce top sings above a mahogany back and sides, resonant and clear, and the six-in-line Strat-style headstock ensures reliable tuning while preserving one of Fender’s most recognizable silhouettes. Other premium features of the Redondo Mini include a walnut fingerboard and bridge and a NuBone nut and saddle.
FENDER SONORAN MINI ACOUSTIC
Fender fun-sizes their popular Sonoran acoustic, part of the California Series, reducing the scale length to 23.3” for a compact, comfortable playing experience without skimping on sound. Tailor your tone with a choice of spruce or mahogany top. The mahogany back and sides provide a firm tonal backbone, and the six-in-line Strat-style headstock ensures reliable tuning while preserving one of Fender’s most recognizable silhouettes. Other premium features include a walnut fingerboard and bridge and a NuBone nut and saddle.

Tone Exploration | The Guitars of Bruce Springsteen
Released on September 30, 1982, Nebraska marked a radical departure for Bruce Springsteen. Recorded entirely alone on a four-track TEAC Portastudio in his Colts Neck, New Jersey bedroom, the album was never intended for release. Springsteen had planned to re-record the songs with the E Street Band, but the raw demos—haunting, intimate, and unvarnished—proved more powerful than any full-band attempt. In their imperfection, he found a truth he couldn’t recreate.
