Quite excited! I was initially going to get a Jazzmaster Acoustasonic, but the price was just too high for what I felt I was getting and I ended up with an HSS Texas Tea Ultra Strat for less. Once they’ve released all 3 I’ll be sorely tempted by the Jazzmaster I reckon. The loss of 4 acoustic models won’t bother me too much, I’d rather have a variety of acoustic/piezo/electric than a bunch of acoustics that all sound pretty similar to my average ears.

Based on the ending, I say Classic Vibe Acoustasonic is where it is at. I just got an early model Godin Acousticaster with LR Bragg module. Somehow, I suspect everyone is trying to reproduce this capability invented in the late 80s with ever more complicated setups, perhaps even Godin themselves. I don't mind, evolution ...

Oh boy, I'm unsure how to react and respond to this.....from day 1 when Fender first released this latest gen Acoustasonic I felt it was a great idea but overpriced and should have started with this Player series level and left it there. Having said this I did purchase the USA Acoustasonic Tele American Flag model (from Alamo Music!) and it is a great guitar, I love. Sure there are differences between these two models but are they significant enough to justify the price difference? I think this Player series will hurt the USA model sales and they should have stuck with only a single series for this guitar. I knew they would do this and it was a waiting game to see how long they waited to do it. We'll likely see more custom versions of the USA model released to keep enticing buyers for the bigger price tag. I will stick with my USA American Flag model, like you said if you going to get one of these get a wild color and what could be better than the USA flag? That Paisely Acoustasonic is not bad because that pattern has history. No buyers remorse here, only a 'I knew it' moment!
@jeffreyhill51372 жыл бұрын
I just bought the American $300 off so $1700. I’m still within the return time if I wanted to go this route. To me the lowfi is unusable and I ask why. So is the body pickup and the extra sounds I have worth the extra $500? I’m kind of in the yes category. I’ve watch several reviews of this new and i feel the extra sounds and more versatility of the american is better. Have not really been that impressed with the player vs the american but that’s just my opinion which is --

Tbh the new Fishman pickups in actual acoustic guitars have so little feedback that you can play them with highgain amps under 20 watt. I play metal riffs on a Fender PM-3 without problems. There is no need for an Acoustasonic in my opinion. I wish there would be a Fender PM-3 made in Mexico or USA. Now I have to save money till I can afford a Martin OM-28.

Man, i don’t like these, and that’s with Cooper’s favourable playing. I’m wondering how the dreadnought setting would sound with loud full tilt strumming. There’s a lot of overlap in what you can play on both electric and acoustic but I’ve never heard an electric sound good when strumming cowboy chords hard and fast near the nut. This is THE thing only an acoustic can do well and the acoustasonic can’t do it imo.

Who said Americans should HAVE to pay 1300 to 3000$ for a good fender strat. Over priced no matter how you look at there products. I'm officially will never purchase another fender product. Saying that I own a American lake placid blue stratocaster so dont say I'm simply to cheap. Other companies are offering more versatility with there guitars, and fender has people paying 2k for a guitar that wont stay in tune if you even look at the whammy bar. Contoured heel but only for 2k. Other companies for 499$ offer far superior performance imo Fender HAS to pull there head out there 3rd eyes. And 10k for a les paul gibson, dont get me started.
