This is my mildly modified Fender acoustic!  It has no electronics and is meant to be a simple songwriter and campfire guitar.  It’s Fender’s cheapest full size dreadnought guitar.  You'll be amazed at how awesome this acoustic sounds given my changes!

My branding consists of:

• Replacing the tuner buttons with Grover shaped versions
• Cutting out a player’s side sound hole (a little larger than what Breedlove & Gibson do) since I cover the initial soundboard sound hole with an elevated pick guard
• I add a custom shaped elevated Greasy Groove graphic pick guard in their “Pin-Up” theme to cover the original sound hole; however, I will replace the graphic pick guard if a nongraphic pick guard is desired with either a black or tortoise shell multi-ply pick guard as reflected on the first pic
• I added black felt washers under the strap buttons (yes, Fender didn’t even have them initially) and black “Safety Lock” guitar strap locking washers to prevent guitar straps from coming off unexpectedly
• I replace the saddle with a better quality compensated saddle
• I replace the bridge pins with ones that follow the color scheme of the neck binding (black with white dot) after I saw string slots in front of the bridge pin holes.  This use to be the standard for acoustic guitars which helps the bridge pins from popping out while seating the strings better and enhancing the guitar’s tone

I replaced the strings with a new set of phosphor bronze 11s; however, if a different gauge is preferred I will include that set

My pricing is based on my costs to acquire the instrument and do my branding changes and additions, without labor or shipping costs!  Hence, my pricing is really as low as I should go; however my postings accept offers.

I'm retired now, branding guitars is something I enjoy doing!  My goal is to get "StageReady" awesome guitars in the hands of all players (beginners to professionals).  I consider my branding to be Guitar Art (GuitArt).  My small business is a ministry for musicians; my goal is to simply cover my costs to do this as a senior veteran on retirement. 

I have over 135-guitars that I purchased to brand and resell as part of my retirement plans!  So if you don’t see the model you really prefer posted yet, please feel free to ask me in a message, more than likely I have something you might be interested in!  This will also help me in my branding and posting order.  Thanks for viewing my posts…Fred
