Description
What makes this guitar special? This is a unique Fender acoustic straight out of the mid ‘80s. The most striking aspects are its gorgeously flamed headstock and flame sycamore back and sides. The simple and straight grains produce a very clean looking flame and color in the Sunburst finish as well. The headstock flame looks straight up awesome as it streaks through the dark finish outside of the burst, while the color fades from a red exterior to a vibrant orange interior, all with luscious, yet tight and consistent waves. Its cream binding and rosette add to its warm aesthetic and both frame and center its design. It has a unique tone that centers around a strong a responsive mid-range with subdued lows and a clean high end. All in all, this uncommon Fender acoustic will prove to be a cool addition to many rosters.
