Fender Guitars and Amps
Fender has been part of the story of popular music since 1946, and its guitars, basses and amps still turn up on more records than almost any other brand. The Stratocaster, Telecaster, Jazzmaster and Jaguar have been played by everyone from Jimi Hendrix to Sonic Youth, and that range is still the backbone of what most guitarists reach for first.
We stock the full spread of Fender electric guitars, basses, amplifiers and acoustic guitars alongside rarer pieces from the Fender Custom Shop for players after a specific finish or spec. Whether you’re buying your first Squier or comparing Stratocasters side by side, our Brighton East team can talk you through pickups, neck profiles and setup before you decide.
Fender Electric Guitars
The Stratocaster and Telecaster remain Fender’s two most recognised shapes, but the range also runs to the offset Jazzmaster and Jaguar for players after a different feel and tone. Each model comes in several tiers, from Squier through to American Professional and Custom Shop, so there’s a real spread of price points within each shape.
Fender Bass Guitars
The Precision Bass and Jazz Bass have defined how a bass guitar is supposed to sound since the 1950s and 60s, and most bass players still measure other instruments against them. We stock both shapes across Squier and Fender tiers, along with the accessories to go with them.
Fender Amplifiers
Fender’s amp range spans practice-friendly combos through to the Twin Reverb and Deluxe Reverb models that shaped the clean, chimey tone associated with the brand. If you’re not sure what wattage or model suits your playing, our staff can set a few up side by side for you to compare.

Fender FAQ
What’s the difference between a Stratocaster and a Telecaster?
A Stratocaster has three single-coil pickups, a contoured body and a tremolo bridge, giving a versatile, slightly brighter tone. A Telecaster has two pickups, a flat body and a fixed bridge, known for a twangier, more direct sound that suits country and rock players.
Are Fender guitars good for beginners?
Yes. The Squier range uses the same body shapes as Fender’s higher-tier guitars at a lower price point, making it a common starting point for new players before stepping up.
Can I try Fender guitars and amps in store?
Yes. Our Brighton East showroom keeps a working range of Fender guitars, basses and amps in stock, and staff are happy to set a few up for you to compare.
