Our verdict

A smart hybrid for players who want a Telecaster shape that sounds acoustic or electric on demand. It is not a full depth acoustic, so unplugged volume is modest.

Overview

Not a traditional steel string acoustic, the Fender Acoustasonic Telecaster pairs a Sitka spruce top and nyatoh body with an under-saddle piezo in a slim Tele shape. A Blend knob moves the sound from acoustic to electric.

Shape and range win over electric players: it feels like a Telecaster yet plugs in as an acoustic. The thin body cannot match the volume of a dreadnought when played unplugged.

Who it's for

Stage and studio players switching between acoustic rhythm and electric parts. Unplugged campfire and porch players should look at a full depth acoustic.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Telecaster shape and feel
  • Acoustic and electric voices
  • Blend knob for mixing
  • Slim body, comfortable to hold
Cons
  • Thin body limits projection
  • No case or included items listed
  • Pickup needs power for amplification

Performance notes

Amplified sound comes from the piezo under the saddle for acoustic tone and a second pickup for electric tone, mixed by the Blend knob. Played unplugged, the spruce top gives a balanced voice, but the slim body moves less air than a deep acoustic.
