Fender Tim Armstrong Hellcat, Walnut Fingerboard, Checkerboard

Known as the Grammy-winning founder of the influential American punk band Rancid, Tim Armstrong is also well-respected as a producer and indie label owner. However, as a songwriter, he has always turned to his old Fender concert-style acoustic for inspiration. The Tim Armstrong Hellcat is based on Armstrong's classic instrument, featuring modern appointments including high-quality electronics. A great guitar for pop, rock, folk, and more, it has a solid spruce top for an exceptionally sweet sound and a satin-finished maple neck for smooth playability.
