Tim Armstrong, the Grammy - winning founder of the famous U.S. punk band Rancid, is also a respected producer and indie label owner. He often finds songwriting inspiration in his old Fender concert - style acoustic guitar. The Tim Armstrong Hellcat guitar is modeled after his classic instrument, featuring modern upgrades like top - notch onboard electronics. Ideal for pop, rock, folk, and other genres, it has a solid mahogany top that produces an incredibly sweet sound. The satin - finish maple neck ensures smooth playability. Specifications include a concert body shape, solid mahogany top with laminated mahogany back and sides, a 'C' shaped neck profile, walnut fretboard with unique Hellcat and double skull inlays, Fishman® CD Preamp electronics, and more.
Using this guitar is a breeze. Just tune it up with the vintage - style tuning machines, and you're ready to play your favorite tunes. When it comes to playing, hold the satin - finish maple neck for a smooth feel. For amplified sound, connect the Fishman® CD Preamp to your amplifier. As for maintenance, keep it in a dry and cool place to prevent the wood from warping. Wipe it down regularly with a soft cloth to keep the satin polyurethane finish looking great. When changing the Fender® Dura - Tone® 880L Coated 80/20 strings, make sure to do it one by one to keep the tension balanced on the guitar. Also, be gentle with the walnut bridge and fretboard to avoid any damage.
