We just received the call from our law firm and... We won!!!

The Strat, Tele, P-Bass and J-Bass body shapes are generic, in public domain and free for anyone to use. This is a historical Federal citable case and we'd like to thank and congratulate all in the consortium of opposers to Fender's trademark application. These companies include Anderson, Schecter, Warmoth, ESP, First Act, Peavey and another dozen or so.

The sky is all clear and sunny now. This whole thing had been like a dark cloud hanging over our heads and now the cloud is dispersed for good. Man, I'd just love to walk through the offices of Fender HQ and see the look on the faces of the execs there who thought they were going to get away with this. They got totally pwned in this case and I can't help but gloat about this decision. :D
 
:rock: Keep making those great guitars and providing the greatest customer service I have ever seen!
 
Ed,

Is there a legit gov website that sites this information yet?

Congrats guys!!!!!!!

With your Pro series now costing less than anything out of that so called "custom shop" I am sure Fender is going to feel the pressure!
 
Yeah, didn't Gibson recently get slapped down in their attempts to prevent others from using the singlecut style body? I wonder if it's the same court that heard that case, or if they referenced the earlier Gibson decision within their own ruling.
 
Lord, Fender has 58 pending suits !!! They sue everyone. Is Gene Simmons running Fender ? :D
 
What nobody here complaining that we are all stealing f shapes here? :D
