Fernandes serial numbers - The Gear Page
Aug 25, 2020 · I'm trying to get an estimate on what year a Fernandes strat was manufactured. I've read that many Fernandes didn't have a serial number at all, to make it harder for Fender to press charges with exact numbers.

Fernandes, why it got so bad they left the US market.
Dec 19, 2023 · For about the next fifteen years, whether it was Fernandes, Ibanez, Yamaha, ESP, Washburn, or Fender, the quality was good whether the product was original designs or high quality Fender type stuff, like Fernandes and Fender/Squier.

Jul 12, 2024 · Fernandes & Burny made really excellent guitars. I remember playing a number of the Tele type guitars that were excellent instruments in the early 90s.
