[B] [F#] I'm Graham Cox and I'm playing an acoustasonic telecaster.
_ I find it interesting [B] that you can play what you would normally play on an acoustic guitar.
If I'd have had this, I [Bm] guess, when I was starting to play the [C#] guitar, [B] I borrowed my
sister's acoustic guitar when I was 13 and I had to be very determined because it was
the most horrible thing to play.
[C#] You know, it was bloody fingers and [B] everything.
_ _ _ _ [E] [F#] It's the sort of comfort of it [Fm] and being able to [B] have _ sounds [F#] right there that you would
get very quick at just [B] dialing in at any point during what you're [F#m] doing.
If you needed [B] a _ [Bm] thinner sound that's more strummy, or like me, I [B] go between the two.
I go between electric, strumming and fingerstyle [Bm] _ in a gig.
[B] So it's very handy to be able to just sort of find the right setting there.
It's [F#] also interesting to blend between the two, between the [Bm] acoustic and the electric.
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
But I like the slight overdrive you get when you just _ _ click it over there.
And that's a good place for it to be because actually you could just hit [Bm] the guitar and
whack it into electric mode in one motion.
You're playing and [G] then suddenly you have to go into an overdriven _ _ section.
And you can do it just in one go.
You just hit all the strings, whack that back and step on a pedal.
I mean, that's going to be my move with it.

_ I'm _ [N] going into a Bassbreaker 15 via _ the Pelt fuzz pedal.
There's a marine-led reverb unit here too.
It is going for a totally sort of, in a totally postmodern direction, _ really _ _ aesthetically.
With the indented sort of _ laser-etched fender in there.
But then when you actually pick it up and feel how light it is, it's quite an amazing_
I mean, shocking is a good word.
I mean, you can have equal amounts of negative shock and positive shock, I think.
Because it's a confusing situation when you pick this up.
But it's extremely comfortable and it's really beautiful.
And _ _ everything that might be _ dangerous to guitar players, like_
Because they're kind of, could be quite a clumsy, foolish bunch, has been taken care of.
So it's all rounded off and it's very comfortable at the top of the neck here.
And what I like about things like this, which give you different options, is [A] that you can sit there_
And then you can find your favourite [G#] position for this and that and the [A#] other.
And you can just instantly go, OK, _ that's this [A] and that's that.
And it's very quick _ _ to just go between [N] sounds.
It's the sort of thing that they thought you'd be playing in [Em] _ 2001, [C#]
you know.
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _
I love [E] Telecasters purely [G#] because of their [Bm] simplicity.
And this kind of does the same in the world, in [A] the acoustic world.
Each sound [Gm] is good and [F#] each sound is useful. _
[Bm] _ _ Thanks for [C#] watching.
I hope this in some way [F#] inspired you.
[D#m] Have fun playing. _ _ _
