PRINT The Dylan
The guitar that a musician uses tells a lot about them, as does their hairstyle, their clothing, and the style of music they play. Fender’s print advertising shows how famous guitarists identified themselves through the guitars they played.
The Esquire Everything from a musician’s hairstyle to the pick they use is a statement. It’s a statment of identity. And your identity is a reflection of the music you play. Whether its rock or reggae, punk or pop, a Fender guitar can make all the difference in how your image is perceived. And in the end, perception is everything. Isn’t it?
