"You can hate every piece of music I've ever made and still pick this up and be like, 'That's got some cool features'": Can Fender's new FINNEAS signature models bring new musicians over to the Acoustasonic guitar cause?

Finneas.

Where now for the Acoustasonic? Artist models it seems – Finneas O'Connell becomes the first official Fender Acoustasonic signature guitars and after road-testing them for a few years, he had some specific suggestions for his own models.

“The most important thing to me about a guitar is versatility,” said Billie Eilish collaborator and sibling FINNEAS, who uses guitars as another tool in his songwriting palette and is about to launch his own solo career. “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.”
