Fender California Deluxe Monterey E Mahogany - natural
Combining style with tradition, and—what’s more—a joy to play, the FENDER California Deluxe Monterey E Mahogany (0974652521) is an electro-acoustic steel-string acoustic guitar in the Orchestra Model style, featuring a Fishman CD-1 preamp. It is a versatile and practical model designed for beginners or intermediate-level guitarists.
The Fender California Deluxe Monterey E Mahogany features a solid mahogany top, a mahogany back and sides (laminated wood), a mahogany neck, and a walnut fingerboard (25.5" scale length). The woods are laminated.
As a compromise between rosewood, mahogany, and maple, walnut offers a well-balanced low-mid-high frequency response combined with remarkable clarity. Its bass is rich and precise, its mids are dense, and its treble is full-bodied.
This combination, inspired by Martin’s 15 Series models, produces a sound that is both rich and warm, with round, punchy bass, particularly pronounced mids, and full-bodied treble.
Its natural acoustic volume is remarkable for its medium-sized body but less pronounced than with a rosewood back and sides.
In terms of comfort and playability, it’s a remarkable instrument, with a very comfortable neck and a cutaway that facilitates access to the high notes.
