Fender Acoustasonic Player Telecaster, Shadow Burst

Full Description

Tonal freedom

The Acoustasonic Player Telecaster offers complete tonal control allowing you to really shape your sound. The guitar comes equipped with two pickups, an Under-Saddle Piezo is used for the classic acoustic tone, while an N4 Magnetic pickup captures a more electric sound, delivering a delightful clean tone with no interruptions thanks to Fender’s noiseless pickup design. The pickups come partnered with a three-way switch, allowing you to select which tone you want to be the more dominant voice. If that isn’t enough, you can always combine the two signals with the “Blend” knob, really allowing you to perfect your sound. If you wish, you don’t have to plug in at all, Fender have designed the Acoustasonic to project its natural sound so you can use it for those unplugged sessions.

Terrific tonewood

Sculpted with a mahogany body, the guitar holds fantastic resonance and emits a warm tone that boasts a distinct character. Mahogany doesn’t just produce a fantastic tone, it is also an extremely durable wood, which is why it is often attractive for a lot of guitarists. The body is topped with solid sitka spruce, which delivers a crisp final touch across all frequencies. A rosewood fretboard provides you with a crisp, articulate tone and a silky-smooth playing surface, allowing you to flourish across the frets. The fretboard is backed up by a Modern Deep “C” neck profile, offering a comfortable grasp, while still allowing your hand to glide effortlessly into position, providing an exquisite playing experience.

Stand out style

The Fender Acoustasonic isn’t your average guitar. Every element of it screams individuality. This is what makes it such an attractive instrument. Perfectly blending a slim electric profile with a natural acoustic aesthetic to create a unique and bold instrument. Sometimes it pays to be different, and with this guitar you will be placed at the forefront of this new acoustic-electric revolution.
