Also, at this time Fender was competing against Charvel, Ibanez and others.
Fender bass prodigy free#
After years of cutting quality to cut costs, the master builders at Fender were free to design and build a top quality guitar. The Prodigy came along just after CBS sold Fender to the Fender employees. The internet is good but there is a lot of misinformation out there so be careful and get real information from Fender. The information I got came from a Fender rep who still works for fender and actually sold the Prodigy to places like Guitar Center, etc. Around the 25 year mark a guitar is considered vintage, so the Prodigy is close to a vintage guitar. The Prodigy was discontinued because the guitar was not hitting the target market. It's not! It looks a little like a Strat and that's it. Don't call it a Strat, I've heard many people call it a Super-Strat. Doesn't sound like a Strat and was never supposed to. A four piece (usually only custom shop bodies are made from more than three pieces) solid body made of Poplar, vintage style bridge on the 91 and the maple fretboards are out of this world. I don't know where that story about the bodies being cut in Mexico came from but you can call Fender at 480 596-7195 and get some real information. First, the Prodigy was entirely made in the U.S. I've been reading about the Prodigy online and well, there is a lot of misinformation out there.
