Here for sale we have a Fender Tim Armstrong Hell Cat Electro Acoustic Guitar in Checkerboard finish. Made in Indonesia in 2024, this guitar consists of a Solid Spruce top, Laminated Mahogany back and sides, a Maple neck, and a 19-fret Walnut fingerboard. Other appointments include a Graph Tech Nubone nut, Vintage-Style tuners with Aged White Plastic buttons, and a Graph Tech Nubone saddle. This guitar comes fitted with a Fishman CD-1 Preamp with controls for Volume, Treble, Bass, and a onboard tuner.
The Mahogany neck plays well, with the Fender 'C’ neck shape profile feeling fairly substantial without being cumbersome. The Satin finish to the rear gives the player a smooth feel along the register of the 25.3" scale length. The Walnut fretboard feels smooth under the fingers, and with its 11.81" radius strikes a perfect balance between comfortable chords and practicality for playing lead lines. The medium frets also offer a traditional yet rock-solid feel along the register.
The Hellcat offers a full and vibrant tone, with an unpronounced yet detailed low end, strong and punchy high-mids and a sparkling treble response thanks to the Laminated Mahogany back and sides. The Solid Spruce top helps the guitar to project very well, and provides a wide dynamic range. The Fishman CD-1 pickup translates the acoustic tones of the guitar well and with the Active Onboard preamp, it gives the player a variety of tonal options with the 2-band EQ.
