A Punk Rock Acoustic

Fender pays tribute to the Chicago-based punk group Alkaline Trio with the FENDER® Alkaline Trio Malibu acoustic guitar. This '60s inspired folk-style acoustic features laminated mahogany back, sides, and top. This acoustic features a C-shaped maple Stratocaster® neck is topped with a rosewood fretboard. The custom heart-shaped soundhole design comes from the cover design of Alkaline Trio's acoustic album. The classic Fender headstock gives this acoustic guitar a contemporary look, and its comfy C-shaped neck makes playing a joy. You get that classic California vibe when you play a Fender Alkaline Trio Malibu!
