You can just feel the surf pounding when you look at Fender's vintage-vibe California Series Malibu SCE folk-style cutaway acoustic. It's a blast to play, and with its smaller compact body, it's perfect for beginners and pros alike.
But make no mistake! Electric players too will feel right at home with the soft C-shaped neck and Strat guitar headstock. Other features include a new pickguard shape, classy block inlays, scalloped bracing, traditional bridge and a Fishman® Classic 4T preamp with tuner for all sorts of groovy tonal possibilities. Perfect Fender enthusiasts, fans of vintage-style guitars, players who want a different look and vibe and anyone who wants to ride the wave of Fender's rich musical history and SoCal lifestyle!
