( 1)īut in 2013, Fender reissued the Coronado II, which was the dual-humbucker version of the Coronado that featured a Tune-O-Matic bridge and what Fender called Fidelitron humbuckers. The guitar went through a few iterations in its original production run from 1966-1972. It turns out that back in 1966, in response to the popularity of the Epiphone Casino, Fender enlisted Roger Rossmeisl, a German luthier who designed guitars for Rickenbacker to design them a hollowbody guitar that could compete with the likes of Ephiphone and Gretsch. When I looked at the guitar, I thought it was a Gretsch or a 335 but then I saw the distinctive Fender headstock and thought What? When did Fender do a hollowbody? I only discovered it by watching a video of Juliana Vieira doing a demo of the BOSS RC-10R rhythm/looper. I have to admit that before yesterday, I had absolutely no idea that this guitar even existed.
