Crafted with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid ovangkol back and sides, the Fender California Vintage King boasts a historically accurate dreadnought body shape with an innovative Performance-X bracing pattern.

Vintage-style tuning machines ensure smooth and accurate tuning, while a bone nut and saddle enhance harmonic character.
For amplified performance, the Fishman Sonitone Plus electronics offer specially voiced preamp controls for volume and nuanced tone adjustment. With a soundhole-mounted design, these controls preserve the instrument's vintage aesthetics.
