Introducing the @nick13 Signature Outlaw Heart Aco Introducing the @nick13 Signature Outlaw Heart Acoustic. Guitarist and lead vocalist Nick 13 is the driving force behind the psychobilly band @tigerarmy, infusing the band’s sound with his dynamic guitar playing and distinctive vocal style. Modeled on a vintage Gretsch from Nick’s collection but updated with his own flair, it captures his eclectic influences from midcentury roots music to punk – all the territory he traverses both as frontman of Tiger Army and in his Americana solo career. Each acoustic includes a Fishman PRESYS VT pickup system that lets you plug in for amplified performances while maintaining the guitar’s natural acoustic sound. As a signature touch, the fingerboard showcases an elegant spade inlay pattern, and the headstock features Nick’s distinctive ‘n13’ spade logo. Take a look at the model at the link in our bio.
