The yanks seem to use Fender for whatever they like

I've seen wings, bumpers and splash shields boxed as fenders!

Good luck!

Cool

Fender is an American company making fine rock guitars. The "Stratocaster" and "Telecaster" are (along with the Gibson "Les Paul") the definitive rock guitars.
Any more silly, but real, answers?
