Changing of the Guard

Bill Schultz, who successfully led Fender for many years, died on September 21st. Fender recently named William Mendello as the new chairman.

Fender’s head office is in Scottsdale, Arizona. And I was going to drop by their office when I was down there but, as fate would have it, that was the same week when Bill Schultz passed away.

Next time.

Here is a picture of both men. Long-time leaders within Fender, they helped to turn a struggling guitar company into a great guitar company.
