  20. "Now it's time to dream, and reach for a better life, to be honest, and dare the darkness"

  25. 1. OK, let's talk about Fender and its little legal adventure! A law firm representing Fender Musical Instruments Corporation (FMIC) sent cease-and-desist letters to companies that make instruments that are too similar to their Stratocaster model (though we’re all fuzzy on where they’re drawing the “too similar” line). The law firm’s demand letter even calls on smaller manufacturers to destroy inventory that’s similar to Stratocasters. #guitars #fender #music
