General

Tim and his fans have been asking for it for years - this Tim Armstrong Deluxe. An authentic reproduction of Tim's personal modified left-handed Fender guitar from the '70s. Apart from the wear, this acoustic guitar is an exact copy of the original. It has a solid-top mahogany body with a 4-layer tortoise pickguard and a built-in Fishman sound hole pickup. This guitar comes with a luxury black Tolex case with gold-coloured interior and a leather 'Let's Go' guitar strap that were both designed by Armstrong himself. Tim's signature on the truss rod cover completes this guitar.

Fender Tim Armstrong Deluxe: the sound

This left-handed acoustic guitar has a concert-size body, also known as Grand Auditorium model or Triple O (000), which is more narrow than a standard dreadnought and usually has a brighter, less bassy sound. The sound of this guitar is sufficiently warm and deep, thanks to its all-mahogany body, while the maple neck and 20-fret rosewood fretboard provide clarity. Because the Tim Armstrong Deluxe has a top made of solid wood, it has a deliciously full, resonant sound. The nut and saddle are made of bone, for that little bit of extra bite and attack.

Fishman Neo-D Soundhole Pickup

Originally, this model was an acoustic guitar to which Tim fitted a Fishman Neo-D pickup. The Fishman Neo-D is a soundhole pickup that usually has a long jack cable affixed to it, yet is now connected to a jack input for practical reasons. The jack input also doubles as a strap pin for the included guitar strap. The Fishman Neo-D features an exceptional balance between the strings and a clear, sparkling acoustic sound that is perfect for both stage and studio.

Fender Tim Armstrong Deluxe elec. ac. western left-handed
Wrote the following about Fender Tim Armstrong Deluxe elec. ac. western left-handed
Ik ben zeer blij met deze gitaar !
Hij ziet er fantastisch uit en klinkt redelijk - onversterkt : Niet al te hard en een beetje hol, maar desondanks een mooie warme klank.
Versterkt klinkt hij veel beter, het element is erg goed.
De koffer is gaaf en een echte eyecatcher.

Wat ik minder vind is de aktie van de gitaar. Die ga ik vrijwel zeker opnieuw moeten afstellen want vooral het zadel is erg hoog. Na een uurtje spelen krijg ik al kramp op dit moment.

De nek was even wennen want natuurlijk een Fender nek. Als je altijd accoustisch hebt gespeeld moet je je vingers laten wennen aan de geringe ruimte door de smalle hals.

De prijs is goed vind ik, want je krijgt een mooie gitaar voor een gering bedrag.

Al met al een aanrader voor iedereen die een mooie gitaar wil voor niet te veel geld, en die houd van Fender.

Het is ook een van de weinige gitaren die standaard als "lefty" wordt aangeboden.
