Fender American Acoustasonic™ Telecaster®

NEWS – NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) takes over Anaheim January 24-27th and Fender has wasted no time in announcing a brand new guitar that appears to be breaking some preconceptions about what an acoustic guitar can be.

The features list almost reads like a fight for what can stand out the most. Ten different body style and tonewood combinations, three pickup systems, patent-pending stringed instrument resonance system (SIRS), and a Mod Knob that selects and blends voices.

Fender set out to design this model over three years ago and blur the line between acoustic and electric. With so many acoustic guitars looking the same, it’s refreshing to see one that looks familiar but incredibly technical at the same time. They also clearly weren’t afraid to let this guitar yell that it’s different. Check out the five color options available.

The Acoustasonic Telecaster is available to preorder now for $1999 from Fender authorized dealers. Find one close to you on Fender’s website.

Get ready to use Apple Pay on your next Target & taco run

NEWS – Apple announced in a recent press release that Target and Taco Bell will be joining the growing (and already large) list of merchants who will accept Apple Pay.

Apple Pay is rolling out now in Target stores and will be available in all 1,850 locations across the US in the coming weeks. Customers can use Apple Pay today at more than 245 Hy-Vee stores in the Midwest and inside the store at all of Speedway’s approximately 3,000 locations across the Midwest, East Coast and Southeast. Apple Pay is also rolling out to more than 7,000 Taco Bell and 2,200 Jack in the Box locations in the next few months.

Target, in particular, seems to have been holding out on Apple Pay, instead focusing on its own Wallet app launched in late 2017 for speedy in-store checkout. As someone who uses their Apple Watch to pay for nearly everything from gas to groceries, I’m happy to add another frequently visited store to that list.

However, on a sour note, Target confirmed via Twitter that their REDCard, which saves members 5% each time they use it, will not be added to Apple Pay. Hopefully, they can remedy that quickly, as now I’m forced to make the decision at the register as to whether I want to dig out my REDCard and remember my pin to save 5% or simply wave my hand over the terminal and be on my way.
