Pre Owned Fender Limited Edition Exotic Acoustasonic Telecaster Cocobolo With OHSC - Colin Hay Gear

Truetone Music is proud to be partnered with the legendary musician Colin Hay in offering instruments out of his collection. Each comes with a signed certificate verifying the authenticity, assuring that it has been used on tour, in studio or personally by him. During his years with Men At Work, Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band, and his own solo career, various instruments were used. Very few have become available, until now.

In 2019, Fender unleashed the American Acoustasonic Telecaster, which ended up being one of the most successful new product launches in the history of the company. Later that year, they released a few exotic wood versions, which sold out incredibly fast. It was a home run on top of a home run.  This is the Limited Edition Cocobolo version - only 200 were made for the world.

This guitar is in excellent condition. It has been setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop - and of course sounds amazing! It's not something you'd see very often, as Fender made only 200 of these, and each is truly unique.  And, of course, this is the only one previously owned by Colin Hay, complete with a signed Certificate of Authenticity. As an added bonus, the guitar comes with an autographed LP.  This is the complete package.

It also comes with the original hardshell case and USB charger.  The Limited Edition Exotic Acoustasonic Telecasters were a big hit and have been high in demand ever since.  For more on the guitar, please see below.

Truetone has enjoyed a long friendship with Colin, and we are excited to offer the first pieces from the collection here. Not only are they instantly collectible, but they can also be put to good use right away!

Handcrafted in Corona, California, at the same factory that makes Fender’s iconic electric instruments, the Acoustasonic Telecaster represents the next era in Fender craftsmanship and innovation – designed for fearless artists who want an inspiring instrument with limitless new sounds and a great Fender feel.  

Elegantly simple, the Acoustasonic Telecaster was designed to inspire – mixing future technology with organic feel and playability as a way to connect artists to their music. The fully hollow body features an integrated forearm contour and our patent-pending Stringed Instrument Resonance System (SIRS) – designed to deliver a naturally loud voice with lively harmonics. A smooth-playing mahogany neck and open-pore satin finish make this cutting-edge guitar comfortable and easy to play.

 On stage the Acoustasonic Telecaster eliminates many of the challenges associated with playing an acoustic guitar live by cutting out feedback, and making it easy to access the sounds you need without switching instruments. The Acoustasonic Telecaster is powered by the Fender and Fishman®-designed Acoustic Engine – proprietary blend of classic analog and future technologies that optimize the guitar’s natural sound, and then modify the resonance to deliver a curated collection of voices. These acoustic and electric voices can be played solo, or blended via the Mod Knob to create new sounds. They can also be used simultaneously, courtesy of the Fender Acoustasonic Noiseless™ magnetic pickup.
