How many YouTube thumbnails have you seen, with guitarists talking about how to get out of a rut?  There’s a dead simple fix for getting out of one, and it comes down to two things - you’re sitting down and noodling every time you play guitar, or you’re playing the same things over and over again.

The New Fender Acoustasonic Jazzmaster

Fender has shipped a new guitar in its Acoustasonic line. This time the combo is an acoustic mixed with a Jazzmaster. So many people have been doing reviews of this guitar, but I thought I'd share this one from Mary Spender. The guitar's mode knob allows for such a wide range of acoustic and electric tones, and the neck and body shape is perfect for players who'd like more of an electric feel.

I got to play the Tele version of the Acoustasonic and it played smoothly, and was lightweight. Through a Fishman acoustic amp it sounded really good. I feel like this is what the Line 6 Variax Acoustics could have been, but done in a way better way. Check out Mary's full review below.
