Hey well word has it that The Eternal, Sonic Youth has joined up with Fender to create two cool guitars. The Lee Ranaldo Signature and Thurston Moore Jazzmaster guitars and coming July 1st 2009 they will be available.

Everyone knows that Moore and Ranaldo are well known as two of the top 100 guitarists of all time by rolling stone magazine. They have been playing Fender for ages and well to celebrate 2009  50th edition Jazzmaster fender has decided to pull together a couple of signature models

This is what they had to say about it

"When Fender came to us with an offer to make signature models of our Jazzmaster guitars we jumped at the chance," Moore and Ranaldo said. "These are the guitars that have defined the sound of Sonic Youth for more than 20 years. Although we love all guitars, Jazzmasters are the ones we've modified and perfected for our uses over the years. With massive input from our great road crew, we've come up with a Thurston Jazzmaster and Lee 'Jazzblaster' that fully reflect the current state of the guitars we play in 2009. In fact, we couldn't wait to get our hands on these axes—the prototypes of our Fender models have already been thrust into action during the recording of our latest album, The Eternal, and have already begun to acquire the scrapes and scars of live performance. These guitars rock Sonic style!"
