Finneas is treating fans to more than just new music — the “Cryin Out Loud” singer has also released his first-ever collection of guitars in collaboration with Fender. While the “Only a Lifetime” artist has been helping promote his sister Billie Eilish’s album Hit Me Hard & Soft, along with appearing on Amazon Music’s Songline, Finneas took some time to create his own instrument that was built with all the features he could want.
The collection debuted on Aug. 22 and has two signature styles to choose from: the Finneas Acoustasonic Player Telecaster, which features a Cappuccino fade design and is priced at $1,400, and the limited-edition Finneas American Acoustasonic Telecaster that comes in a crisp white shade with splurge-worthy features and a $2,500 price tag.

Just like the 27-year-old, the Acoustasonic guitars were designed to be versatile, whether you’re looking for electric sounds or a more acoustic noise. You can plug them into a guitar amp or gift one to the aspiring musician in your life for a pro-approved design they can experiment with their sound with.
What makes these guitars especially notable is how the producer curated the sounds that come included with the guitar. Not only will you be able to make music with Finneas-approved notes, but the guitars are also constructed with and onboard chorus effect selected by the artist that you won’t find in any other guitar.

For Finneas, the most important quality when it came to crafting the perfect guitar was having a multipurpose design.
“The most important thing to me about a guitar is versatility,” he said in a press release. “I was first introduced to the Acoustasonic guitar in 2019 when I was on tour with Billie, and I played it at every show that year. When we started conversations about my signature model, I knew this guitar was great in a live setting, and I wanted to find w ays to take it into the studio and make it a versatile, expressive studio instrument. This is the result of that.”
