ʻO Leo Fender, i hānau ʻia ʻo Clarence Leonidas Fender ma 1909, ʻo ia kekahi o nā inoa koʻikoʻi i ka mōʻaukala o nā kīkā.
Ua hana ʻo ia i kekahi mau mea kani i hoʻokumu ʻia i ka pōhaku kihi o ka hoʻolālā kīkā uila hou.
Ua hoʻonoho kāna mau kīkā i ka leo no ka hoʻololi ʻana o ka pōhaku a me ka ʻōwili mai ka acoustic, nā kuʻuna a me nā blues i ka leo nui, distortion piha i hoʻonui ʻia.
Hiki ke lohe ʻia kona hopena i nā mele i kēia lā e nā miliona a puni ka honua a ke ʻimi nui ʻia kāna mau hana e nā ʻohi.
Ma kēia ʻatikala e nānā mākou i kāna mau kumu hoʻohālike nui a me nā ʻoihana āna i kuleana ai me kona hopena i nā mele mea kani a me ka moʻomeheu holoʻokoʻa.
E hoʻomaka mākou ma ka nānā ʻana i kāna hui mua - Fender ʻO Musical Instrument Corporation (FMIC), i hoʻokumu ʻia i ka makahiki 1946 i ka wā i hui pū ai ʻo ia i nā ʻāpana kīkā pākahi i loko o nā pūʻolo kīkā uila piha. Ua hoʻokumu ʻo ia i kekahi mau hui ʻē aʻe ma hope Kanaka Mele, G&L Nā mea kani, nā mea hoʻonui FMIC a me nā mea uila Proto-Sound. Hiki ke ʻike ʻia kona mana i nā hōʻailona boutique hou e like me Suhr Custom Guitars & Amplifiers e hoʻohana nei i kekahi o kāna mau hoʻolālā kumu i kēia lā e hana i kā lākou mau ʻano like ʻole i nā mele maʻamau.
Nā Makahiki Mua o Leo Fender
He kanaka akamai ʻo Leo Fender a ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea koʻikoʻi loa i ka mele a me ka mōʻaukala kīkā. Ua hānau ʻia ma Kaleponi i ka makahiki 1909, ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia e pāʻani me nā mea uila i ka wā e hele ana i ke kula waena a ua loaʻa koke ka hoihoi i ka hana ʻana me nā mea hoʻokani mele a me nā mea hana ʻē aʻe. I ka hoʻomaka ʻana o kāna ʻoihana, ua hana ʻo Leo Fender i kahi amplifier i kapa ʻia ʻo Fender Radio Service, a ʻo ia ka huahana mua āna i kūʻai aku ai. Ua ukali ʻia e kekahi mau mea hana kīkā i lilo i mau hiʻohiʻona kaulana loa o ka honua.
Hānau a me ke ola mua
ʻO Leo Fender kekahi o nā mea hoʻolalelale poʻokela o nā mea kani, me ke kīkā uila a me nā kī kī uila paʻa. Hānau ʻia ʻo Clarence Leonidas Fender ma 1909, ua hoʻololi ʻo ia i kona inoa iā Leo ma muli o ka huikau ma ka ʻōlelo ʻana. I kona wā ʻōpiopio, ua lawe ʻo ia i kekahi mau hana ma kahi hale kūʻai hoʻoponopono lekiō a kūʻai aku i nā ʻatikala e kālepa i nā makasina. ʻAʻole ia a hiki i kona hoʻokumu ʻana i ka Fender Musical Instrument Corporation (FMIC) i ka makahiki 1945 i loaʻa iā ia ka kaulana a me ka ʻike honua.
Ua hoʻololi nā kīkā a Fender i nā mele kaulana me ke kani uila i hoʻokūkū ʻia me nā mea kani, ʻoiai ma mua o 1945 ʻaʻole i lohe ʻia ka hoʻonui kino ʻana i kahi mea kani me ka uila. Ua hele mai ʻo Fender mai ka ʻaoʻao o nā miners lanahu Italia i noho ma Kaleponi a ma ke ʻano he mea i ʻike ʻia i nā mele kahiko o Country-Western a me ka loaʻa ʻana o nā mākau mechanical, ʻaʻole ia he mea kupanaha ke koʻikoʻi kona inoa i nā mele kaulana i kēia lā.
ʻO ke kumu hoʻohālike kīkā mua i hana ʻia e Leo Fender ʻo ia ka Esquire Telecaster i hiki ke lohe ʻia ma nā mele kaulana a pau ma o 1976 i ka wā i hoʻouna ʻia ai ʻo FMIC ma luna o 5 miliona mau ʻāpana! Ua ulu ka Esquire i ka Broadcaster, a lilo i mea kaulana ʻo Telecaster kaulana i kēia lā - mahalo nui i nā hana hou a Leo Fender. I ka makahiki 1951; Ua hoʻololi hou ʻo ia i nā mele pop a me ka ʻāina ma ka hoʻolauna ʻana i ka mea a mākou i ʻike ai i kēia manawa ʻo ke kumu hoʻohālike Stratocaster i hoʻokani ʻia e nā mea hoʻokani pila kaʻao he nui no nā hanauna ma hope o ka wā i kū ai i nā hale kūʻai! ʻO nā kūleʻa kaulana ʻē aʻe e pili ana i ka hoʻokumu ʻana i nā huahana G&L Musical ma 1980 me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā pickups me nā huahana kiʻekiʻe aʻe ma mua o ka mea i ʻike mua ʻia i hoʻomaka i kahi holomua hou loa no ka hoʻonui ʻana i ke kani i loko o ka moʻomeheu kaulana!
Ke Kaumua
Ua hānau ʻia ʻo Leonard "Leo" Fender ma ʻAukake 10th, 1909 ma Anaheim, Kaleponi a ua hoʻohana ʻo ia i ka hapa nui o kona mau makahiki mua e hana ana ma Orange County. Ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia e hoʻoponopono i nā lekiō a me nā mea ʻē aʻe i kona wā ʻōpio a ua hoʻolālā ʻo ia i kahi keʻena phonograph kipi i ka makahiki 16.
I ka makahiki 1938 ua loaʻa iā Fender kāna patent mua no ka Lap Steel Guitar, ʻo ia ka mea hoʻokani uila i hana nui ʻia me nā pickups i kūkulu ʻia. Ua hoʻokumu kēia mea hana i ke kumu no nā mea kani e hiki ai ke hoʻonui i ke mele, e like me nā uila kino paʻa, nā kī a me nā mea hoʻonui.
Ua hoʻoholo ʻo Fender e kālele wale i ka hana ʻana i nā mea kani ma 1946 i kona hoʻokumu ʻana i ka Fender Electric Instrument Company. Uaʻike kēia hui i nā holomua he nui, e like me ka Esquire (i kapa houʻia i ka Broadcaster); ʻo kēia kekahi o nā kīkā uila paʻa kino mua loa o ka honua.
I kona manawa ma kēia hui, ua hoʻomohala ʻo Fender i kekahi o nā hiʻohiʻona kiʻi kiʻi kaulana loa i hana ʻia e like me Telecaster a me Stratocaster a me nā amps kaulana e like me ka Bassman a me Vibroverb. Ua hoʻokumu pū ʻo ia i nā hui ʻē aʻe e like me G&L nāna i hana i kekahi o kāna mau hoʻolālā hou; ʻaʻole naʻe kekahi o kēia mau mea i ola e ʻike i ka kūleʻa nui ma hope o kona kūʻai ʻana aku iā lākou i loko o kahi manawa paʻa kālā i ka makahiki 1965.
Na Leo Fender's Guitar Innovations
ʻO Leo Fender kekahi o nā mea hoʻokani pila koʻikoʻi o ke kenekulia 20. Ua hoʻololi kāna mau hana i ke ʻano o ka hana ʻana a me ka hoʻokani ʻana i nā kīkā uila a me nā kī kī, a ʻike ʻia kāna mau hoʻolālā i kēia lā. ʻO ia ke kuleana no kekahi mau hiʻohiʻona kikā a me nā hui. E luʻu kākou i ke ʻano o ia mau mea.
Fender Broadcaster / Telecaster
ʻO ka Fender Broadcaster a me kāna mea pani, ka Telecaster, he mau kīkā uila i hoʻolālā mua ʻia e Leo Fender. ʻO ka Broadcaster, i hoʻokuʻu mua ʻia i ka lehulehu i ka makahiki 1950 ma ke ʻano he "fender's revolutionary new electric Spanish guitar" ʻo ia ka mea hoʻokani pila ma ke kino holoʻokoʻa kūleʻa Spanish. Ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo ka hana mua ʻana o Broadcasters i kaupalena ʻia ma kahi o 50 mau ʻāpana wale nō ma mua o ka hoʻopau ʻia ʻana ma hope o ka manawa pōkole ma muli o ka huikau i hoʻokumu ʻia e kona inoa e kūʻē ana me nā pahu 'Broadkaster' a Gretsch.
I ka makahiki aʻe, i ka pane ʻana i ka huikau o ka mākeke a me nā hihia pili kānāwai me Gretsch, ua hoʻololi ʻo Fender i ka inoa o ka mea kani mai "Broadcaster" a i "Telecaster," i ʻae ʻia ma ke ʻano he kūlana ʻoihana no nā kīkā uila. I loko o kona ʻano mua, ua hōʻike ʻia kahi hana kino papa i hana ʻia mai ka lehu a i ʻole ka lāʻau alder-he ʻano hoʻolālā e mau nei i kēia lā. Loaʻa iā ia ʻelua mau pahu pahu pahu hoʻokahi (ka ʻāʻī a me ke alahaka), ʻekolu puʻupuʻu (ka leo haku, ka leo haku a me ka mea koho koho i hoʻonohonoho mua ʻia) ma kekahi kihi o ke kino a me kahi kaula noho ʻekolu ma ke alahaka ʻano kino ma kekahi ʻaoʻao. ʻOiai ʻaʻole i ʻike ʻia no ka ʻenehana loea a i ʻole ke ʻano tonal, ua ʻike ʻo Leo Fender i ka mana nui i kēia hoʻolālā mea kani maʻalahi i hoʻololi ʻole ʻia ma mua o 60 mau makahiki ma hope. Ua ʻike ʻo ia he mea koʻikoʻi kona me kēia hui ʻana o ʻelua mau puʻupuʻu hoʻokahi i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i ka leo waena waena me ka maʻalahi a me ka hiki ke hoʻohauʻoli ʻia i nā mea pāʻani āpau me ka nānā ʻole i ka pae talena a i ʻole ka palena kālā.
Fender Stratocaster
ʻO kekahi o nā hoʻolālā kīkā uila kaulana loa ma ka honua ʻo ia ka Fender Stratocaster. Ua hana ʻia e Leo Fender, ua hoʻokomo ʻia i ka makahiki 1954 a ua lilo koke ia i mea kani. Hoʻokumu mua ʻia ma ke ʻano he mea hou i ka Telecaster, ua hāʻawi ke ʻano kino o ka Stratocaster i nā ergonomics i hoʻomaikaʻi ʻia no nā mea pāʻani lima hema a me nā lima ʻākau, a me ka hāʻawi ʻana i kahi ʻano tonal ʻokoʻa.
ʻO nā hiʻohiʻona o kēia kīkā he ʻekolu mau puʻupuʻu coil hoʻokahi i hiki ke hoʻoponopono kūʻokoʻa me nā leo ʻokoʻa a me nā puʻupuʻu leo, kahi ʻōnaehana alahaka vibrato (i ʻike ʻia he tremolo bar i kēia lā), a me kahi ʻōnaehana tremolo synchronized e hiki ai i nā mea pāʻani ke loaʻa nā leo kūʻokoʻa ma muli o ke ʻano. Ua hoohana lakou i ko lakou mau lima e hooponopono. He mea kaulana hoʻi ka Stratocaster no kona ʻāʻī ʻāʻī ʻāʻī, e ʻae ana i nā mea pāʻani e ʻoi aku ka mana ma luna o ko lākou lima huhū.
Ua kaulana ke ʻano kino o kēia kīkā i ke ao holoʻokoʻa, me ka nui o nā hui e hana ana i nā kīkā uila ʻano Stratocaster i kēia lā. Ua hoʻokani ʻia e nā mea hoʻokani pila he nui i nā ʻano ʻano like ʻole o ka mōʻaukala e like me nā rockers e like me Eric Clapton a me Jeff Beck a hiki i nā mea hoʻokani jazz e like me Pat Metheny a me George Benson.
Fender Precision Bass
ʻO ka Fender Precision Bass (hoʻopōkole pinepine ʻia i "P-Bass") he kumu hoʻohālike o ka bass uila i hana ʻia e Fender Musical Instruments Corporation. Ua hoʻokomo ʻia ka Precision Bass (a i ʻole "P-Bass") i ka makahiki 1951. ʻO ia ka bass uila holomua mua loa a kaulana ʻia a hiki i kēia lā, ʻoiai ua nui nā loli a me nā ʻano like ʻole o ka hoʻolālā i kona mōʻaukala.
Ua hoʻolālā ʻo Leo Fender i ka Precision Bass i hōʻike ʻia i kahi pickguard i mālama i kāna mau uila palupalu, a me nā ʻokiʻoki hohonu i hoʻomaikaʻi i ke komo lima i nā frets kiʻekiʻe. Hoʻokomo pū ka P-Bass i kahi pahu pahu pahu hoʻokahi i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i loko o kahi hale metala, e hoʻonui ana i ka lōʻihi a me ka maikaʻi o ke kani ʻoiai e hōʻemi ana i ka leo uila i hana ʻia e nā haʻalulu o ka mea kani. Ua hoʻohana nui ʻia kēia hoʻolālā ma waena o nā ʻoihana he nui, me nā mea hana ʻē aʻe e hoʻokomo i nā hoʻolālā pickup like a me nā mea uila i kā lākou mau kī.
ʻO kahi hiʻohiʻona wehewehe o ka CBS Fender Precision Bass he alahaka me nā noho hoʻoneʻe pākahi, kuhi hewa ʻia i ka wā i hoʻouna ʻia mai Fender a no laila koi ʻia e hoʻoponopono ʻia e kekahi ʻenehana loea; ʻae ʻia kēia no ka leo pololei ʻoi aku ma mua o ka mea i hāʻawi ʻia ma o nā ʻano mechanical. Hoʻokomo ʻia nā hiʻohiʻona ma hope ma hope o ke kūʻai ʻana o CBS iā Fender i hāʻawi i nā koho string a me nā kaʻa Blender e ʻae i nā mea pāʻani e hoʻohui a hoʻohui i nā pickups no nā leo like ʻole. Hoʻohui ʻia, hiki ke loaʻa nā hiʻohiʻona hope i lako ʻia me nā mea uila ikaika e like me nā hoʻololi hoʻololi hoʻololi / passive toggle a i ʻole nā mana EQ hiki ke hoʻololi ʻia no ka hiki ke hoʻoponopono leo maikaʻi ma ke kahua a i ʻole nā hoʻonohonoho studio.
ʻO Fender Jazzmaster
Ua hoʻokuʻu mua ʻia i ka makahiki 1958, ʻo ka Fender Jazzmaster kekahi o nā hiʻohiʻona hope loa i hoʻolālā ʻia e Leo Fender ma mua o kona kūʻai ʻana aku i kāna ʻoihana inoa a neʻe aku e ʻike i ka brand guitar Music Man. Hāʻawi ka Jazzmaster i kekahi mau holomua, me ka ʻāʻī ākea ma mua o nā mea kani ʻē aʻe o ia au. Ua hōʻike pū ʻia nā alakaʻi alakaʻi a me nā kaʻa kaʻa, a me kahi hoʻolālā lima tremolo hou.
Ma ke ʻano o ka leo a me ka manaʻo, ʻokoʻa loa ka Jazzmaster mai nā hiʻohiʻona ʻē aʻe o ka laina laina o Fender-e pāʻani ana i nā memo ʻālohilohi a hāmama me ka ʻole o ka kaumaha ʻana i ka mahana a me ka waiwai. He ʻokoʻa loa kēia mai kona mau mua e like me ka Jazz Bass (ʻehā mau kaula) a me Precision Bass (ʻelua mau kaula) i ʻoi aku ke kaumaha o ke kani me ka lōʻihi o ka hoʻomau. Eia nō naʻe, ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia i kona mau kaikunāne e like me ka Stratocaster a me Telecaster, ua ʻoi aku ka versatility ma muli o kāna ākea ākea o nā koho tonal.
Ua hōʻailona ka hoʻolālā hou i ka haʻalele ʻana mai nā hiʻohiʻona mua o Fender i loaʻa nā frets haiki, nā lōʻihi lōʻihi a me nā ʻāpana alahaka like. Me ka maʻalahi o ka pāʻani a me ke ʻano i hoʻonui ʻia, ua lilo koke ia i mea kaulana i waena o nā hui heʻe nalu ma Kaleponi i makemake e hoʻohuli i ka leo "heʻenalu" me ka pololei ma mua o ko lākou poʻe o nā ʻano like ʻole i hiki ke hoʻokō me nā kikā kuʻuna i kēlā manawa.
ʻO ka hoʻoilina i haʻalele ʻia e Leo Fender ka mea i hana ʻia i kēia lā ma waena o nā ʻano he nui e like me indie rock/pop punk/ kūʻokoʻa Alternative a me nā mea pāʻani rock/progressive metal/ jazz fusion.
Nā makahiki hope o Leo Fender
E hoʻomaka ana i ka makahiki 1960, ua hoʻomaka ʻo Leo Fender i kahi manawa o ka hana ʻana i nā kīkā a me nā bass hou. ʻOiai ʻo ia ke poʻo o Fender Musical Instruments Corporation (FMIC), ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia e lawe i kahi noho hope i nā hana o kēlā me kēia lā o ka hui ʻoiai ʻo kāna mau limahana, e like me Don Randall a me Forrest White, i lawe i ka nui o ka ʻoihana. Eia naʻe, ua hoʻomau ʻo Fender i mea koʻikoʻi i ka honua guitar a me bass. E nānā kākou i kekahi o nā kumu hoʻohālike a me nā hui āna i kuleana ai i kona mau makahiki hope.
G&L Guitas
ʻO Leo Fender ke kuleana no kahi hōʻailona o nā kīkā i hana ʻia e kāna hui G&L (George & Leo) Musical Instruments (i hoʻokumu ʻia i ka hopena o 1970s). ʻO nā hoʻolālā hope loa a Fender i hoʻolauna ʻia ma G&L i kālele ʻia i ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i ka Telecaster, Stratocaster, a me nā hiʻohiʻona ʻē aʻe. ʻO ka hopena, he laina nui o nā mea kani i loaʻa nā hiʻohiʻona kūʻokoʻa e like me ka S-500 Stratocaster, Music Man Reflex bass guitar, Comanche a me Manta Ray guitar a me ka hoʻolauna ʻana i nā mea kani ʻole me nā mandolins a me nā kila kila.
Ua hana ʻia nā kīkā G&L me kona manaʻo kaulana i ka maikaʻi a hōʻike ʻia nā kino lehu a i ʻole nā kino alder me ka pau ʻana o ka polyester tinted, bolt-on maple necks, rosewood fingerboards i hui pū ʻia me nā pickups i hoʻolālā ʻia e like me nā humbuckers coil; ʻO nā kiʻi kiʻi Vintage Alnico V. ʻO nā waiwai hana kiʻekiʻe e like me 21 frets ma mua o 22 aia i loko o ka hoʻolālā o ka hoʻolālā hoʻolālā Leo - ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma mua o ka nui. Ua makemake pū ʻo ia i nā ʻano ʻano maʻamau ma mua o nā holomua i haʻalele ʻia e nā mea hana kīkā he nui i ka ʻimi ʻana i nā kani a me nā ʻano hou.
Ua manaʻo maikaʻi ʻia ʻo G&L no kāna mau leo ʻālohilohi i hui pū ʻia me ke kākoʻo hoihoi, kahi pāʻani hoʻoikaika ʻole i hoʻonui ʻia e nā holomua hou e like me ka huila trussrod ma lalo o ka fretboard e hiki ai i nā mea pāʻani ke hoʻoponopono i ka ʻāʻī ʻāʻī iā lākou iho ma mua o ka hilinaʻi ʻana i kahi hoʻoponopono. luthier. Ua kaulana kēia mau hiʻohiʻona iā G&L ma waena o nā mea hoʻokani pila ʻoihana a me nā mea ʻē aʻe e ʻimi ana i nā palette kani kūikawā ma kā lākou huakaʻi i ka hoʻokani pila.
Kanaka Mele
I loko o nā makahiki o 1971 a me 1984, ʻo Leo Fender ke kuleana no ka hana ʻana i nā ʻano hoʻohālike like ʻole ma o Music Man. Loaʻa kēia mau hiʻohiʻona e like me ka bass StingRay a me nā kīkā e like me ka Sabre, Marauder, a me Silhouette. Ua hoʻolālā ʻo ia i kēia mau mea kani a pau akā i kēia mau lā he nui nā ʻano like ʻole i loaʻa.
Hāʻawi ʻo Leo i ka Music Man me kahi ʻokoʻa i kona ʻano kuʻuna ma o ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā ʻano kino hou radical i kāna kaʻina hana. Ma waho aʻe o ko lākou hiʻohiʻona, ʻo kahi hiʻohiʻona nui i kaulana loa iā lākou ʻo ka leo ʻoi aku ka mālamalama ma muli o nā kino lāʻau kukui a me nā ʻāʻī maple i hoʻohālikelike ʻia me kahi hoʻolālā Fender maʻamau.
ʻO kekahi o nā haʻawina koʻikoʻi a Fender i Music Man ʻo kāna mau manaʻo e pili ana i ka hoʻololi ʻana a me nā ʻōnaehana koho. ʻEkolu wale nō kūlana kiʻi i nā mea kani mai ia au i hoʻohālikelike ʻia me ka hoʻololi kūlana ʻelima o kēia lā ma nā mea kani hou. Ua hoʻolale ʻo Leo i nā hoʻolālā "noiseless" i hoʻopau i ka hum e pili ana i kekahi mau pickups kiʻekiʻe i ka wā e mālama ana i nā pilikia paʻa i hoʻololi ʻia e nā hoʻololi ʻana i ke kaula i ka wā o ka pāʻani ola.
E kūʻai aku ʻo Leo i kāna kuleana ma ka ʻoihana me ka nui o ka loaʻa kālā e ʻike ana i ka kūleʻa nui i kēlā mau makahiki ma mua o ka haʻalele ʻana iā Music Man i 1984 i ka wā i lilo ai ʻo CBS i ka mana āpau.
ʻO nā hui ʻē aʻe
I nā makahiki 1940, 1950 a me 1960, ua hoʻolālā ʻo Leo Fender i nā mea kani no kekahi mau hui kaulana. Ua hui pū ʻo ia me nā inoa like ʻole, me G&L (George Fullerton Guitars and Basses) a me Music Man (mai 1971).
Ua hoʻokumu ʻia ʻo G&L ma 1979 i ka wā i haʻalele ai ʻo Leo Fender mai CBS-Fender. I ka manawa i ʻike ʻia ʻo G&L ma ke ʻano he luthier guitar. Hoʻokumu ʻia nā mea kani a lākou i hana ai i nā hoʻolālā Fender mua akā me ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana e hoʻomaikaʻi i ka maikaʻi o ke kani. Ua hana lākou i nā kīkā uila a me nā basses i nā ʻano ʻano like ʻole me nā hiʻohiʻona hou a me nā hiʻohiʻona maʻamau. Nui nā mea hoʻokani pila kaulana kaulana i hoʻohana i nā hiʻohiʻona G&L i kā lākou mau mea kani nui me Mark Morton, Brad Paisley a me John Petrucci.
ʻO kahi hui ʻē aʻe a Fender i manaʻo ai ʻo Music Man. I ka makahiki 1971, ua hana pū ʻo Leo me Tom Walker, Sterling Ball a me Forest White e hoʻomohala i kekahi o nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni bass o ka hui e like me ka StingRay Bass. Ma ka makahiki 1975, ua hoʻomaka ʻo Music Man e hoʻonui i kāna kikoʻī mai nā basses wale nō e hoʻokomo i nā kīkā uila i kūʻai ʻia aku i nā mea kūʻai aku a puni ka honua. Hōʻike kēia mau mea kani i nā mea hoʻolālā hou e like me nā ʻāʻī maple no ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana a me ka maʻalahi o nā mea pāʻani makemake i ke ʻano pāʻani wikiwiki. ʻO nā mea hoʻokani pila ʻoihana i hoʻohana i nā kīkā Music Man ʻo Steve Lukather, Steve Morse, Dusty Hill a me Joe Satriani ma waena o nā mea ʻē aʻe.

ʻO Leo Fender kekahi o nā kiʻi koʻikoʻi a mahalo ʻia i ka mōʻaukala guitar. Ua hoʻololi kāna mau hoʻolālā i ke ʻano a me ke kani o nā kīkā uila, hoʻolaha i nā mea kani paʻa i hiki ke lohe ʻia ma nā hale, nā keʻena ʻaha mele a me nā hoʻopaʻa leo.
