Enjoy Americana Vibe from this Fender Acoustic

You get more than a great-playing and great-sounding instrument with the FENDER® Newporter acoustic-electric guitar - it's got a lot of americana vibe too! The Newporter is actually a classic Fender design, originally produced between 1965 and 1971. You'll love the pleasantly rich and organic tone, thanks to the orchestra body style constructed of solid mahogany. And when you plug in for the first time with the built-in Fishman Sonitone pickup system, you'll be glad you got your hands on the Fender Newporter acoustic-electric guitar.

Fender Newporter Acoustic-electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Rich sound from the all-mahogany body
  • Distinctive touches make this a special guitar
  • Natural amplified sound from the Fishman Sonitone system

Rich sound from the all-mahogany body
To provide the Fender Newporter outstanding warmth and projection, Fender crafted its top, back, and sides from pure mahogany. Along with a bone nut and saddle, as well as a real rosewood bridge and fingerboard, the Newporter gives you the rich and soulful sound you'd expect from a classic American acoustic.

Distinctive touches make this a special guitar
Non-traditional touches (for an acoustic) like the Stratocaster-style headstock, the "C" neck shape with rolled edges, and the 9" fretboard radius all add to the distinctive vibe of the Newporter. The neck and fretboard in particular add to your playing experience, feeling faster and smoother than most "traditional" acoustics.

Natural amplified sound from the Fishman Sonitone system
You'll be ready to perform with Fender's Newporter, which comes equipped with Fishman's Sonitone electronics system. Fishman is a leader in acoustic amplification, and it shows in the natural tone you get from the Newporter acoustic-electric. The Fishman Sonitone puts volume and tone controls right inside the Newporter's soundhole for easy access.
