The Power of Acoustasonic Instruments at an Economical Price

When the Fender Acoustasonic hit the scene, few could accurately predict the immense success and impact it would have on today’s guitar players. The Fender Acoustasonic Player Telecaster acoustic-electric guitar equips you with much of that same inspiration in a streamlined package, cutting down on functionality and cost for a significant boost in playability and finesse. This hybrid instrument’s finely tuned soundport provides resonant acoustic tones when unplugged, with incredible magnetic/under-saddle electronics and a 3-way blade to conjure three different pairs of realistic acoustic and electric guitar tones. As for the tonewoods, Fender again chose mahogany for the body with a solid Sitka spruce top, exuding sonic warmth with the power and punch to be heard in the nosebleeds. Tap into the mystique of Fender’s incredible hybrid guitars with the Acoustasonic Player Telecaster!

Streamlined electronics provide a wide palette of electric and acoustic tones

Though clearly inspired by its older Acoustasonic siblings, the Acoustasonic Player Telecaster take a more stripped-down approach to Fender’s highly acclaimed hybrid A/E guitar for a more refined and user-friendly experience. Much like the original, you still get a specially tuned soundport along with Fender/Fishman-designed electronics. The 3-way blade easily flips between any of the Acoustasonic Player Tele’s three unique voice pairs. These meticulously crafted acoustic and electric tones can be played solo or melded to perfection courtesy of the onboard blend knob. As for sound? This impressive 6-string goes from small-body, short-scale acoustics to the lo-fi crunch of double-tracked guitars without ever needing to step on a pedal or swap instruments.

Magnetic N4 bridge pickup with a stellar Fishman under-saddle piezo

The Acoustasonic Player Tele’s Fishman and Fender-designed electronics system pairs an N4 magnetic bridge pickup with an under-saddle piezo. This combination provides you with crisp cleans, crunchy overdrive, and everything in between, complete with a tight low end, clearly defined highs, and punchy mids to power through any mix. Even better, these electronics sound phenomenal without an amp — Sweetwater guitarists are amazed at the lifelike tones and crystalline clarity achieved when plugged directly into a PA. Regardless of your needs, the Acoustasonic Player Tele’s syrupy-sweet tone and plentiful range will suit many styles of music.

Fender Acoustasonic Player Telecaster Acoustic-electric Guitar Features:

  • Streamlined version of Fender’s popular Acoustasonic hybrid acoustic-electric guitar
  • Mahogany body topped with punchy spruce lays a solid tonal foundation for acoustic and electric tones
  • Comfortable Modern “Deep C” mahogany neck capped with smooth-as-glass rosewood
  • Resonant soundport provides beautiful acoustic tones unplugged
  • Fender/Fishman-designed electronics system pairs an N4 magnetic bridge pickup with an under-saddle piezo
  • 3 voice pairs swappable on the fly courtesy of a 3-way blade
  • Blend knob blends “A” and “B” voices to perfection
  • Powered by a single 9V battery with an easy-release cover

Why Buy Your Guitar from Sweetwater?

See how Sweetwater goes to great lengths to give you the very best online guitar buying experience. From our online Guitar Gallery that allows you to see and select the exact instrument you want to our 55-point Inspection process and our in-house guitar techs, we take the guesswork out of buying your next guitar online.

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

Note: While demo items from Fender do not include the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation warranty, you can shop with confidence knowing that this item is backed and covered by Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

It’s impossible to imagine a world without Fender guitars, and if you’re like many of the guitarists at Sweetwater, then Fender not only made the first guitar you ever bought " they made the last one too! From building the first mass-produced solidbody electric guitars and basses in the 1950s to creating some of the most influential amplifier designs in history, it’s no wonder why Fender is one of the biggest names in the business. As one of the world’s largest Fender dealers, we have countless guitars, basses, amps, effects pedals, and accessories in stock and ready to ship, whenever you need them. We’re always getting our hands on their latest creations, and there’s nothing we love more than to tell our customers all about them! So, whether you’re looking for your first axe or a Custom Shop creation, make sure to give your Sweetwater Sales Engineer a call at (800) 222-4700.
