Letter From The Dean
Life without music is simply existence. True living is borne of experience and deep knowledge that is driven by your passion.
Welcome to Fender® University, where we're opening our doors for the first time to guitar enthusiasts worldwide to join us and become part of the process that makes Fender what it is today. Whether your passion is playing, building, listening or simply learning more about guitars, there's no place on earth where you'll have more fun doing it all than at Fender. Along with access to our world-class Master Builders, artists, clinicians and executives, you'll earn more than a degree in the SPIRIT OF ROCK-N-ROLL®—you'll also walk away with a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and, did I mention, a limited edition Fender American Standard Series instrument, exclusively offered to the inaugural class of Fender University.
I hope you’ll enroll now. Look forward to seeing you soon.
Richard McDonald
Honorary Dean of Fender University
McDonald began his music career as an aspiring student of Fender at age 14 and later went on to become a professional musician for nearly a decade before joining Fender Musical Instruments in 1993. He is senior vice president of global marketing for the company.
