Plant
workshop
Fullerton, CA, USA[1, 2]. Built for 1 brand on record.
Address 107 South Harbor Boulevard per S439 (NPS, NRHP ref 13000511); no coordinates sourced, so the point is left blank and precision stays city. Opening year conflict: 1945 (NPS) vs 'late 1938' (Wikipedia FMIC article, S434) vs 'early 1940s' (OC Weekly citing Richard Smith, S440); 1945 kept as the primary-source date. Closed 1951 means Fender's use ended with the building's sale in 1951 (NPS).
