Fender Musical Instruments, a privately owned company headquartered in the US, was founded in 1946 and employs approximately 1,710 individuals. The company functions as a global musical instruments enterprise with a portfolio of music lifestyle brands.
S&P Global Ratings revised Fender Musical Instrument’s Corp.'s outlook on February 26, 2026, noting the company modestly outperformed EBITDA expectations and beat its budget in the second half of 2025. Despite this, Fender's overall 2025 performance remained weak, with estimated revenue declining 3.5% and S&P Global Ratings-adjusted EBITDA down 17%, primarily due to weaker consumer discretionary spending on guitars and music equipment, and higher costs of goods sold stemming from tariffs. Previously, on February 18, 2026, Fender Musical Instruments Corp. launched a "Voodoo Child" hero film as part of the Fender Stratocaster's 70th Anniversary project, featuring artists including Nile Rodgers, Tom Morello, Ari O'Neal, Tash Sultana, and Jimmie Vaughan.
