NOTE: The first Fender stratocaster guitar was sold in 1954. Now their new CEO wants to sue every copycat of the strat worldwide. 
Deeper supplemental info:
Is it just the Strat ? They have the telecaster and offset bodies as well

Just the Stratocaster, for now.
That’s ridiculous: as usual, Rick gives his informed and reasoned response. No wonder he has over 5 million subscribers.

I wonder if this is related to Fender trying to trademark the name Leo Fender after G&L’s demise last year? These corporate schmucks need to change their focus. I agree with Rick - they need to make a great product again, instead of shooting themselves in the foot.

I absolutely love my Fender Stratocaster. Made in Japan 1983. It plays better than any Gibson I’ve ever touched.
What do the top 5 auto makers have to do with this?
Must be thinking of the wrong fenders.
