The fender american performer acoustasonic telecaster. one guitar, infinite sounds.

Go from acoustic to electric, in between, and back again with the Fender American Acoustasonic Telecaster. Offering an infinite range of acoustic and electric sounds in just one instrument, the Fender American Acoustasonic Telecaster proposes a new answer to the question of what a guitar can be: everything.

Nathaniel Murphy shows you how “everything” is actually just the thing a working musician needs most.

Nathaniel takes the Fender American Acoustasonic Telecaster from the living room to the studio and onto the stage without missing a beat. He uses the acoustic-electric hybrid to create a wide range of tones that extends well beyond anything previously thought possible from one guitar, all with the flick a switch and the turn of a knob.

REV THE ENGINE

The key to the Fender American Acoustasonic Telecaster’s many voices is the Acoustic Engine, a seamless blend of classic and progressive technologies designed in collaboration with Fishman. The Engine features three separate pickup systems:

- Fishman Matrix Narrow under-saddle transducer pickup

- Fishman Acoustasonic Enhancer under-bridge pickup

- Fender Acoustasonic Noiseless pickup

These three pickup systems work together with the String Instrument Resonance System to produce an infinite range of hum-free acoustic and electric tones with minimal feedback.
