Hi.
This is Nathaniel Murphy, and I'm
excited to introduce you to the Fender American Acoustasonic
Telecaster Cocobolo from the Exotic Woods Collection.
The Acoustasonic Exotic Series sprinkles
in the warmth and beauty of legendary acoustic tonewoods,
resulting in a guitar that is both beautiful tonally
as well as visually.
The guitar features a colorful wood grain
with a tone that is deeper on the low end,
very responsive with shimmering highs.
The sound is unique because the guitar is doing the work.
The tonewoods are all working together
to give you a different sound than you
would hear with the standard Acoustasonic models.
So let's dig in and take a closer look.
For the amp setup, I'm running the guitar into an A/B Box,
then into a Fender Acoustic SFX for the acoustic tones,
and then a Fender '68 Deluxe Reverb for the electric tones.

Let's review the features of the Acoustasonic Cocobolo.
The body top is Cocobolo with White Limba back and sides.
The neck, as well, is White Limba, with an open pore satin
finish on the back.
It has a modern deep C-shaped neck with an ebony fingerboard.
Control-wise, we have a master volume,
a five-way selector to choose between a curated collection
of acoustic and electric voices, and the mod knob, to solo
or blend the voices for even more tonal options.
In the guitar, we have three pickup systems--
an Under-Saddle Piezo, an internal body sensor,
and a Fender Noiseless magnetic pickup in the bridge position.
Now let's run through a few tones.
I'll start from position 5A for a dreadnought tone,
and then blend in an auditorium tone, 5B, with the mod knob.
The A voice is rolled counterclockwise
and the B voice is rolled clockwise.
And you can blend them however you like.

In position 4A, we can dial in a small body tone,
parlor-inspired.
Let's see how that sounds.

We can go up to position 3B and add the internal body sensor
to a dreadnought tone.
Now, the top of the guitar comes alive.
Great for percussion effects, when looping, and overall
enhances the harmonics.

Moving into electric territory, I'm
going to jump over to position 1A, which
is the electric pickup clean and then add in the Deluxe Reverb.
Midway through, I'll roll into 1B,
which gives you a semi-clean fat tone with just
a touch of overdrive.
