They should be reserved to people with actual craft. It just pisses me off - these things lose their meaning, status and luster when they are given out like candy, IMO. Just because Mendes can strum a few chords doesn't make him deserve the honor and rare privilege of a signature model. Stratocaster for a girl and pop star that can actually play.
Fender has made some suspect decisions, but then they do something cool like the H.E.R. Adorned with a fan's rendition of a striking floral design, this highly personal take on the popular 60s short-scale model features an alder body, C-shaped maple neck with 9.5 radius, 22 medium jumbo frets and a unique single/hum pickup configuration, providing a wide. There have been others in more recent years that got signature models aimed at kids like the Pete Wenz Squier bass for a guy who plays nothing but punk root notes. The Shawn Mendes Foundation Musicmaster is a unique combination of exquisite vintage art and classic Fender tone. At least Ed Sheeran actually plays guitar on almost every song, though his songwriting sucks if you ask me and strikes the lowest common denominator AKA prepubescent teenage girls.īack in the day, guys like Tom Delonge from Blink was popular, wasn't the best guitarist but his riffs were extremely memorable and he actually EARNED his signature guitar. 'I am so excited to release this guitar collaboration between Fender and the Shawn Mendes Foundation, Mendes said.
They have had TEAMS of actual talent AKA songwriters doing their work for them to fit perfectly into the world of meaningless pop drivel that circulates on modern radio. These people aren't musicians and to honor them or call them that is a farce.
Yet another undeserving signature model made by Fender - first that trash Eilish uke, now this Musicmaster and Martin just made a Shawn Mendes model.
