Fender has made huge updates to its American Performer lineup, formerly known as American Special, says Business Insider. In a statement Fender said, "The American Performer Series blends traditional Fender design with new elements for modern tone and performance." The new line of USA-made guitars now includes basses, after Fender reached out for feedback from gigging musicians. With input from musicians, Fender spent years updating stalwarts such as the Stratocaster and Telecaster. Fender also refined the Jazzmaster and the Mustang and is introducing a Jazz, Precision, and Mustang bass.
