Fender Tim Armstrong Deluxe electro-acoustic western guitar

General

Tim Armstrong (singer, guitarist and founder of the legendary punk band Rancid) has left his mark on yet another Fender signature model. The Fender Tim Armstrong Deluxe is a faithful reproduction of his old mahogany Fender guitar from the '70s. A beautifully finished solid top acoustic western guitar, modified with a Fishman sound hole pickup. This guitar comes with a leather 'Let's Go' guitar strap designed by Tim and a black Tolex case with orange plush interior. Naturally, this guitar brandishes Tim Armstrong's signature on its headstock.

The wood of the Fender Tim Armstrong Deluxe

This steel-string acoustic guitar has a concert-type body made entirely out of mahogany. The Armstrong Deluxe has a maple neck and a 20-fret rosewood fretboard to add some perfect sparkling to the mahogany's warm, dark sound. This guitar features a solid wooden top, that gives it a better resonance than a laminated top, contributing massively to a fuller sound with more volume and an excellent projection. The acoustics of this guitar are spot on. To protect the top from being scratched while playing, it has a marvellous 4-layer tortoise pickguard.

Fishman Neo-D Soundhole Pickup

Originally, this model was an acoustic guitar to which Tim added a Fishman Neo-D pickup. The Fishman Neo-D pickup is a soundhole pickup, that usually has a long jack cable affixed to it yet is now connected to a jack input for practical reasons. The jack input doubles as a strap pin for the accessory guitar strap. The Fishman Neo-D provides an exceptional balance between the strings and the clear, sparkling acoustic sound that is perfect for both stage and studio.
