Those aren't WRHB's (at least on the mustang), that's a Fender Enforcer (high gain ceramic, used by John 5) with "retro widerange style covers"

The '72 has a WRHB in the neck (though they are the reissues, which are nothing like a real WRHB)

I would wreck that mustang, I love hardtails.
The coil splitting options are a nice touch from fender.

Maybe Pawn Stars. That's way over-priced...and they all hurt my eyes, except the '51.

those photos are totally Photoshopped. you can see where things have been smoothed along some of the trim edges, the lighting is wrong, and the reflections on the counter glass in the photo of the green guitar shouldn't remain contiguous and straight from the top of the counter to the front glass.

i smell April Fool's...there's nothing about these guitars anywhere online before today, they're only on the Fender site and one retail site each for the US and UK, and the photos are all fake. there's a purported video demo from Premier Guitar on YouTube with actual guitars, but the guys in the video look a little too amused to be serious. i say it's a shuck, and suspect that the guys at the Custom Shop are ROFLing even as i type.
