Comments | The Fender Robben Ford Model was produced in Japan from 1987 to 1993 and were based on the Esprit Ultra.This example is from near the end of production and features a chambered mahogany, rather than alder body. The next year, production resumed in the US Custom Shop, with the mahogany body but without the chambering. The last models were built in 2002. |
