Why Would Fender Risk Everything For This? (Servco's Real Plan)

Fender launched a legal war most experts say it can't win — built on a default judgment, contradicting a ruling it already lost, and torching decades of goodwill. So why do it? The answer isn't in a courtroom. It's in who actually owns Fender. Follow the money and a different picture appears: Servco Pacific, the company that controls Fender, also bought Reverb — the largest marketplace in the world for buying and selling guitars, and the very place Fender's rivals are traded. One company. The manufacturer and the marketplace. The team and the stadium. This is the theory almost nobody is talking about — that the lawsuit was never meant to win in court, but to work somewhere else entirely. What's covered: — Why Fender's case is so weak in the first place — Who Servco Pacific really is (hint: not guitar people) — Why buying Reverb changes everything — What a marketplace owner can do that a guitar company can't — The honest case that it's all just a coincidence No sponsorships. No protected reputations. Is this a clumsy legal overreach by Fender — or the opening move of something much bigger from Servco?
