JPJ Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Being a huge fan of the SWR sound, I was wondering what, if anything, is going on at SWR these days? Last I heard they'd been bought out by Fender and a quick look at their website gives no clue with most of their signature products (SM Series, Redhead etc) no longer listed.

Musky Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 SWR have gone the same way as Genz Benz under Fender. Another one bites the dust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Yup. Sadly they are no more. . Best look into servicing my SM400 a bit more often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsgbass Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Don't forget to add [b]Sunn[/b] to the list that went under Fender's wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwilym Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Is there something "new" going on? Fender bought SWR well over 10 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fender bought SWR well over 10 years ago. [/quote] Fender bought SWR well over ten years ago, and kept the brand alive until around 2012. Now SWR are no more.
