Music is in the journey
between the notes!


Acoustic StringBender® installed
in any flat top guitar opens up
a whole new world of music for players in every genre.
$2,739

FITS INSIDE YOUR GUITAR!

     The New Acoustic StringBender can be installed in any flat-top acoustic guitar. Like the original B-Bender, the Acoustic StringBender is actuated by pushing down on the guitar neck. This pulls the Strap Lever up. The Strap Lever is connected to the Pull-String Bridge Pin – so pushing down on the neck of the guitar raises the note of a string one step.

DOESN'T ALTER THE TONE
OF YOUR GUITAR!


     The Acoustic StringBender weighs less than 8 ounces. The device attaches to neck block inside the guitar. The framework, cast of light weight aluminum/magnesium, is designed to allow the natural tones of the acoustic guitar to ring through. The only visible alteration to the guitar is a slot for the Strap Lever.


SET UP TO SUIT YOU!

     The Acoustic StringBender has adjustable return-spring tension so the effort required to actuate your StringBender can be set up to suit your playing style.



A Whole New Musical Language

     If you think B-Bender licks on an electric guitar are amazing consider what becomes musically possible with an Acoustic StringBender. Imagine having 'Sneeky' Pete or Buddy Emmons inside your acoustic guitar playing split pedal licks or wobble bar licks. The bending string becomes another voice defining the melody inside the rhythm. You'll find new shades of blues, spicy Kajun grooves, sweeter Country licks, and edgy neo-modern innovations. The Acoustic StringBender provides an extended palette of colors, flavors and musical shapes bringing a whole new dimension to self-expression. Once you play an Acoustic StringBender, playing guitar is never the same.


How To Get an Acoustic StringBender

     Acoustic StringBenders are installed by Gene Parsons at the StringBender Custom Shop by appointment. The Acoustic StringBender is the brainchild of Gene Parsons, inventor of the original Parsons/White B-Bender, Double Bender, and Parsons/Green's Fender B-Bender. Gene has installed thousands of StringBenders in electric and acoustic guitars since 1973.
