Fender Alternate Reality Powercaster Electric Guitar Pau Ferro FB, White Opal

In 2018, Fender's Parallel Universe Collection merged the designs of their most notable guitar and bass models to whole create new instruments that shook things up a bit. There was the Strat-Tele Hybrid, the Whiteguard Strat and the '51 Telecaster PJ Bass, just to name a few. Following on from that concept, Fender now brings you the Alternate Reality Series.

Launched at NAMM 2019, this is a limited-edition run of models where multiple Fender design elements are mixed and matched within a single instrument. A uniquely voiced guitar with a visual appeal, the freshly-designed Powercaster was built from the ground up for the ultimate in tonal versatility. Pairing the massive grunt of an Atomic humbucking pickup with the articulate voice of a P90 style single-coil soapbar, the Powercaster's tone has a bit of an edge to it that is ideal for cutting through to the front of a packed mix. The retro-inspired, but thoroughly modern offset alder body makes this a guitar that looks as formidable as it sounds.
