Strat-like neck, adjustable saddles, bolt on neck. A true Fender. This is how all their acoustics should be. SO COOL!

[ELWOOD..]

A spec check guitar made in heaven. No Brandon. Such is life.

[oneeyedjack]

I still have my old '63 King, along with a '70 Palomino. Love those old Fender broomsticks.

"Its almost what you want to do, its not what you want to do" - great line for a Fender

[JWebber]

Sweet!
Looks like an old Buck Owens acoustic from back in the day! Thanks Lemmo!

That's an incredible guitar, blow my mind and take my money please!

[martinandersson]

Great job Mikey! That’s an interesting guitar. Really cool. Have fun in Vegas. You’re going to kill it👍👏

The aluminum bar down the middle was called a Tone bar by Fender. It served as a brace for the neck so the guitar wouldn’t fold up like billfold. Leo Fender hired a German Luthier that worked at Rickenbacker to create it. Some had Mahogany some had Brazilian Rosewood. It was played by likes of Buck Owens, Elvis, Johnny Cash, and Charley Pride!

I really like that mellow sound of the Fender, who would have thought it sounded so good. Sorry Mike can’t meet up with you I thought that donating the money for our Hawaiian bros n sis in the Islands needed our help. Next time ❤🙏👍🏻
I’d like to plead with all reading this to donate to help the survivors 🙏🙏🙏🎸🎸🎸😥

Many years ago, because of that wooden "rod" inside, a local guitar shop called it the Fender Broomstick.

[stevevolenec]

Are you getting better, Good for you, nice playing

[Al-yftm]

We have a Fender Redondo from the late 60's - very cool guitars. There were a couple of other models like the Newporter in Mahogany.

[phillippurdy]

Bravo! Lemmo makes that Fender sing. You can hear the overtones. Jen drifts with the cam making it more interesting. I can imagine that guitar being used on a big stage in a stadium. But both a bolt on neck plate and a truss rod? Really ?

[tinoblanes]

i don't knew about a vintagge acoustic but 10 minutes ago i see any in a vietnam old pic

[snapfinger]

Fender created the “need” for an acoustic with a Strat neck. Viva Las Vegas Mr. Limo.

[zuperdee]

Tonight?!? You better not be planning to get to Las Vegas on time by exceeding the speed limits, Lemmo! 😂

[brentlehr]

I have a 1964 Palomino. Very similar 'broomstick; era of Fender acoustics. Love the neck. Sonically there's a bit to be desired for sure, but they are really cool guitars!

[tomgilchrist]

If I was out front in the shop I would be disappointed you and that guitar were through the back! Sounds great.
