This must be appreciated uncut so that I'm going to repost the whole thing as posted to Canned Dogs:

Fender is a manufacturer of stringed instruments and amplifiers and they’re the makers for the bass guitar that is being used by Mio in K-ON. Fender Japan has a staff blog, and they actually made a post about K-on back on the 10th of April which reads:

“Wow K-on is amazing
Sakurakou keionbu… looks really exciting
And the bassist Mio is using a vintage jazz bass (the 62 JAZZ BASS), and she’s a lefty too… it’s so moe.
I have a feeling that this anime will have a really big break.
adios!”

Next you know Fender will be producing guitars with K-on art on it! adios!

adios!

Also, what would Sixten think?

BTW, at the time of writing, 3 out of 6 comments were completely moronic.
