Fender Highway Series Parlor Acoustic-electric Guitar - Natural Reviews
The Highway Series Parlor acoustic-electric guitar is fuel for onstage freedom — and like a good road trip, it brings new perspectives that inspire creativity. This innovative design pairs full-size parlor playability with the comfort and portability of significantly reduced body depth. Although the feel is compact, the solid tonewoods used in the Highway Series Parlor deliver a full-bodied unplugged sound that’s paired with custom Fishman Fluence electronics tailored for onstage use. The body features a true X-braced acoustic sound chamber, and extra details such as a bolt-on mahogany neck and sealed tuners help you reach destinations safely and in record time. The Highway Series Parlor is certainly playable unplugged, but it truly shines on the stage. Guitarists at Sweetwater find the thinline body naturally suppresses feedback for a plugged-in sound that’s professional and pristine. Furthermore, unlike most acoustic-electric guitars, Highway Series instruments work well with pedals! Who isn’t hungry for an acoustic-electric that puts yesterday’s performance hassles in the rearview mirror?

I thought I would not like it
Man I was wrong it feels like and acoustic
Nice and light and sounds great both acoustic or plugged in. Very cool looking parlor. Going to be a great guitar for gigging. Came with a killer travel bag
Fender did well on this design I'd love to play the dread version next. The Fishman pickup is for real. Sounds great so far
With my effects and amps.
This may not be a guitar for everyone I wanted to hate it but I really like it.
Comfortable, well playing, great sounding smallish guitar!
Out of the box, I was a bit concerned — the action was really high, and it played like a beast. I bought a demo, and while guitar was in great shape, the strings were shot. so, I replaced the strings, adjusted the neck, oiled the fretboard (badly needed), and adjusted the heel — it plays great!!! now the action is at 1/16" at 12th fret with no buzz!!! the fretwork is exceptional and overall build quality very nice. its a thin satin finish guitar, which i like. very light and resonate. nice sounding thinish parlor sized guitar. im quite impressed.
