SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (BUSINESS WIRE) June 9, 2004
Fender Musical Instruments Corp. (FMIC) announced today that,
contrary to recent reports, the iconic musical instrument
manufacturer is not for sale.
"As you may be aware, an article has recently appeared in a
number of financial publications in which there is reference
made to the potential sale of Fender Musical Instruments Corp.,"
said Bill Schultz, chairman and chief executive officer of FMIC. "I
want to make sure that you hear this straight from me; this article
is completely erroneous, and FMIC is not for sale."
And I just raised $450 million towards buying Fender!
