Fender American Design Experience

Funny, Bradley was the one who sent me an email saying he was my representative. Then he promptly ignored my questions. :meh:
I have Bradley Shelton on my bass. He has never responded to one of my emails. He has not returned voicemail messages. I'd have been happier if they said, "Don't call us. We'll call you."
Hmmm... that's a bummer. To be honest, I only emailed each of my guys once with an accessory question and they were both on top of it. Maybe I caught them on the right day.

So did they give you an estimated arrival date, Addison?
All I got was a FedEx tracking number, but it looks like it was generated but not shipped. I'm guessing it'll officially ship out on Monday and I'll have the bass by Friday or the following Monday.

I'm really pumped... I understand that the ADE isn't exactly a life-changing experience for a significant portion of the right-handed world, but I've wanted a genuine Fender '58-styled lefty P-bass with a maple board and gold guard for a really long time.

Reactions: Matt R.
It was placed on 3/25.

If you log in to the Fender store and check your order, it might say "Completed" if you ordered it around the same time I did.

My second bass still says "Processing" but my fellow lefty friend Matt R also ordered his first earlier than I did, and his order says "Completed" but he still doesn't have a tracking number yet.

I'm assuming he'll get a tracking number on Monday.
 
Well I just received my first bass
