Reimagining one of Fender's most iconic electric guitar designs as a versatile acoustic-electric hybrid, the Fender Acoustasonic Standard Telecaster brings acoustic resonance, magnetic pickup punch and familiar Telecaster playability together in a single creative platform. A braced solid Sitka spruce top and fully chambered nyatoh body create a lively acoustic foundation, with integrated forearm and back contours adding comfort to the streamlined Telecaster shape. Its dual-source analog electronics combine a Fishman undersaddle transducer with a Fender Acoustasonic Shawbucker, letting players move from articulate acoustic-electric sounds to magnetic pickup punch and explore the textures between them with a simple Blend control. A nyatoh neck with a Modern Deep C profile, rosewood fingerboard and 22 medium-jumbo frets brings familiar Fender playability to the hybrid design. Available exclusively at Guitar Center in British Racing Green, the Acoustasonic Standard Telecaster expands the possibilities of an enduring Fender silhouette with a versatile range of acoustic and electric character.
Solid Spruce and Chambered Nyatoh Create a Resonant Acoustic Foundation
The Acoustasonic Standard Telecaster starts with a braced solid Sitka spruce top and fully chambered nyatoh body, giving the hybrid design the resonance and responsiveness needed to support its acoustic side. Sitka spruce provides a lively, articulate top surface that responds dynamically to changes in attack, while the chambered body allows the instrument to resonate more freely than a conventional solidbody electric. The familiar Telecaster silhouette is reshaped around the needs of the Acoustasonic platform, with integrated forearm and back contours allowing the body to rest naturally against the player whether seated or standing. A satin urethane finish keeps the overall feel smooth and understated while letting the distinctive construction remain central to the experience.
Modern Deep C Neck for Familiar Fender Playability
A nyatoh neck with Fender's Modern Deep C profile gives the Acoustasonic Standard Telecaster a substantial yet comfortable feel rooted in the brand's electric-guitar tradition. The 25.5" scale maintains familiar Fender string response, while a rosewood fingerboard and 22 medium-jumbo frets support smooth chord work, bends and lead playing across the neck. A 1.69" Graph Tech TUSQ nut keeps the fretting-hand proportions closer to an electric guitar than a traditional acoustic, making the transition especially natural for players accustomed to Fender solidbodies. Bolt-on construction and a satin urethane neck finish further reinforce the familiar Fender character at the heart of the Acoustasonic playing experience.
Fender and Fishman Pickups Blend Acoustic and Electric Voices
The Acoustasonic Standard Telecaster uses two complementary pickup systems to move fluidly between acoustic-electric and magnetic guitar sounds. A Fishman undersaddle transducer captures string vibration at the bridge for clear, articulate acoustic response, while the Fender Acoustasonic Shawbucker brings the punch, body and character of a magnetic electric-guitar pickup. Rather than surrounding those voices with complicated switching, Fender keeps control immediate with Master Volume and Blend knobs. Turning the Blend control shifts the balance between the two pickup systems, opening up acoustic-focused sounds, electric textures and a range of hybrid voices that combine elements of both. The streamlined analog design makes those tonal changes intuitive enough to become part of the performance itself.
Guitar Center Exclusive British Racing Green With Refined Fender Details
Available exclusively at Guitar Center, the Acoustasonic Standard Telecaster's British Racing Green finish complements the unconventional character of its hybrid design. A black and aged-white rosette provides crisp detail around the soundhole, while the rosewood Modern Asymmetrical bridge and matching rosewood fingerboard bring a natural contrast to the solid spruce top. Chrome hardware includes Fender Standard cast/sealed tuning machines with hex buttons for smooth, dependable adjustment, while the Graph Tech TUSQ nut provides a consistent contact point at the other end of the strings. Together, the restrained appointments keep the Telecaster silhouette immediately recognizable while giving this Guitar Center Exclusive Acoustasonic an identity all its own.
A Familiar Fender Shape With an Expressive Acoustic-Electric Voice
The Acoustasonic Standard Telecaster takes the direct, familiar character of one of Fender's most enduring designs and opens it to a broader range of sounds and playing approaches. Its chambered construction and solid spruce top provide an acoustic foundation, while the Shawbucker and Fishman transducer let players move from articulate acoustic-electric response through blended textures to magnetic pickup punch with just two intuitive controls. The Modern Deep C neck keeps that versatility grounded in a familiar Fender playing experience, making the different voices feel like natural extensions of the same instrument. From songwriting and recording to performances that call for multiple tonal personalities, this Guitar Center Exclusive British Racing Green Acoustasonic Standard Telecaster brings exceptional flexibility to an unmistakable Fender design.
