Fender Thin Line Telecoustic/Stratacoustic Guitars

[M Havlen]

Anyone own one of these Fender 's. I'm looking around at Acoustic/Electrics, like the looks of these, their inexpensive.
Just thought i'd get some reviews from real owners.

I don't own one - but I had one in the studio a little whiel bask (the Fender thin line "Tele".

Candidly, I was not real impressed. It played well enough and the neck felt good but thre tone was too thin.

On some mixes a thin guitar sound may fit well, but for my ears there was not enough depth to the sound to this "accoustic Tele"

How about when it's plugged in? I wouldn't imagine that youd get much frome one of these unless it was plugged in right?

They sound a lot better if you throw up in them before you play them. Plugged in, they sound like a fender acoustic which means if you mess with it for long enough you can possibly get a decent sound. They're definitely better plugged than they are unplugged.

I have two friends that each have one. They really like them and have worked well for both. They have used them with both wired and wireless setups with good results.

As with any pickup based accoustic, you have to find the right EQ for your tastes, but their results were guite good.

Because of their size you're not going to get an Ovation sound, but for less than $200 the're a good value.
