If you play the guitar or even if you just love the sound, you know the name Fender bass. Ever since Clarence "Leo" Fender founded his guitar works in 1946, this brand has been a standout for the guitar in general and the electric guitar specifically. It's always popular for professionals and amateur musicians alike.

He was not the first to add electricity to guitars, but "Leo's" managed to win hearts, minds and the marketplace. He was also the first to create a bass that was not hollow. Such instruments, particularly those marketed by the Fender corporation are at the center of virtually every rock and roll combo in existence.

For those looking at the possibility of electric guitars as holiday gifts, or if you just want a Fender bass or any of several guitar options, you can't do much better than The Guitar Center's online store at guitar center com.
