Fender® Custom Shop Rip Curls Dusseldorf?
(Fender | Posted 2004-07-20)
Fender® Germany held a big Custom Shop Party for some of the best Custom Shop dealers from Germany, Switzerland, Austria and the BeNeLux states in Duesseldorf, Germany at “Monkey´s Island."
Monkey´s Island is a big restaurant decorated like a beach right in the heart of Dueseldorf! Fender rented part of it for the event and had drinks and a nice BBQ for everyone - including more than 60 dealers, local rock stars and the local music press.
The party started at 7 p.m. and went until early the next morning. In addition to this, the “Beach Boys Revival Band” performed all night long. All of the guest were very exited and more than happy to hang out in the nice relaxing atmosphere.
Custom Shop Master Builders, John English and Dennis Galuszka, flew over to assist and did a fantastic job talking to the dealers and press.
The Guitars...
With the help of John English and the Custom Shop, three fantastic Custom Shop models were created especially for this event. One hundred fifty sets were made for the European market to support this event. Most of the sets were sold to dealers before the show.
