Fender has announced a few exciting artist partnerships over the past month, including signature guitars from Finneas and Jack White, and a bass guitar from Blu DeTiger.
The instruments showcase the versatility of each artist, who have teamed with the guitar maker to create instruments best-suited to their creative strengths and styles.
Each of the products are available for purchase now on the Fender website.
Finneas Signature Acoustasonic
The recording artist and Billie Eilish collaborator Finneas unveiled an Acoustasonic Player Telecaster and a limited edition Acoustasonic Telecaster that deliver clean electric and small-body acoustic tones via a magnetic Acoustasonic Shawbucker pickup and Fishman undersaddle transducer. The guitars feature an onboard chorus effect and come in cappuccino and arctic white colors.
“The most important thing to me about a guitar is versatility,” said Finneas, whose sophomore solo album “For Cryin’ Out Loud!” comes out Oct. 4. “I was first introduced to the Acoustasonic guitar in 2019 when I was on tour with Billie, and I played it at every show that year. When we started conversations about my signature model, I knew this guitar was great in a live setting, and I wanted to find ways to take it into the studio and make it a versatile, expressive studio instrument. This is the result of that.”
Jack White Fender Collection
Rock torchbearer Jack White returns to Fender with three new signature products — the Pano Verb Amplifier, the TripleCaster Telecaster and the TripleSonic Acoustasonic. The amp is inspired by White’s Vibrasonic and Vibroverb amps and offers enhanced stereo reverb and tremolo effects with a unique 15” and 10” speaker combination. The TripleCaster (pictured above) features a Piano Black finish complemented by white powder-coated hardware, equipped with a Bigsby Vibrato, a custom pickup set, DropTuner, Killswitch, and a distinctive banjo-style armrest. The Acoustasonic also comes in black and white, boasting a unique soft “V” neck shape and pickguard shape, and equipped with streamlined three-way switch voicings.
“We found the best of the old, with the best of the new and mixed innovation with the history of Fender to do something that we think Leo Fender would have been very proud of if he was alive today,” said White, who recently put out a return-to-form record titled “No Name.”
Blue DeTiger Jazz Bass
Blu DeTiger is bringing sky burst sparkle to Fender with her signature jazz bass. With chrome hardware and a mirrored pickguard, the instrument is built with a chambered lightweight ash body and a satin maple neck with a bound 9.5” rosewood fingerboard and vintage tall frets. It comes equipped with custom pickups and an 18V Player Plus preamp with three-band EQ and an active/passive toggle.
“This bass is a reflection of everything I love about playing,” said Blu DeTiger. “I wanted an instrument that could handle the diversity of sounds I create, from deep, funky grooves to melodic lines that cut through the mix. Fender and I worked closely together to make sure this bass not only looks amazing but sounds incredible in any setting.”
