Fender Acoustasonic Player Telecaster Rosewood Fingerboard Shadow Burst With Gigbag

The Fender Acoustasonic Player Telecaster is a game-changing instrument: a single guitar that does the work of many. Two pickups supply a total of six voices that go from focused, small-body acoustic to aggressive electric Tele.

The Acoustasonic Player Telecaster has two pickups: a Fishman undersaddle piezo and a Tim Shaw-designed N4 magnetic in the bridge position. But you’re getting more than just two sounds. Each position of the 3-way switch offers a pair of unique voices that can be played individually, or blended. The electric voice pair gives you clean and twangy Telecaster tones, plus fatter single-coil sounds. The acoustic voice pairing makes the Acoustasonic sound like a short-scale, 000-sized mahogany guitar, or a classic rosewood dreadnought. The last voice pair offers lo-fi clean with lo-fi crunch. It’s like plugging an acoustic directly into the soundboard to double track a guitar line and fill out the mix.

Built like an acoustic to sound like one
Fender builds the Acoustasonic Player with mahogany back and sides, and a Sitka spruce top. Though it’s nowhere near the depth of a standard acoustic guitar, we found that the tonewood combination provided real satisfaction while strumming unplugged.

An electric neck with a familiar feel
This Player Telecaster has a Modern Deep C profile neck which plays fast like an electric guitar, but it’s made out of mahogany, which is more apt for an acoustic. The rosewood fingerboard has a 12" radius, letting you bend strings without fretting out, while still being flat enough for fingerpicking.

Get this Tele if you need one guitar to do it all
We live at a time where anyone can release a studio-quality album from home and hit the charts. It pays deep dividends to be a musician who can do it all, so why shouldn’t your guitar do it all, too? The Fender Acoustasonic Player Telecaster lets you take a single instrument to a show and cover electric and acoustic guitar parts equally well. It comes with a 1225 deluxe gig bag featuring a super-padded handle and shock-absorbing padded backpack straps.
