Spruce and Mahogany

The guitar’s tonal foundation is formed by a solid spruce top, combined with laminated mahogany sides and a mahogany back . This combination of woods produces a balanced tonal spectrum with brilliant trebles, distinct mid-range and a pleasantly warm fundamental character. Optimal vibration transmission is ensured by the Scalloped X Bracing, which supports the top’s resonance. The result is an open tone with a quick response, rich full-bodied sound and impressive projection.

Slim mahogany neck

The Fender California Deluxe Monterey E Aztec Gold also impresses in terms of playability. Its mahogany neck with a slim Slim-C profile ensures a pleasant playing experience and supports a comfortable hand position across the entire fretboard. The walnut fingerboard complements the ergonomic design with a pleasant surface, enabling both fluid chord changes and the precise execution of melodies and solo passages.

Pickups for live performances

For amplification on stage, in the rehearsal room or during recordings, the Fender California Deluxe Monterey E is fitted with a Fishman pickup system. This authentically transmits the acoustic character of the instrument to amplifiers or mixing desks. Key sound settings can be conveniently adjusted via the preamp integrated into the side of the guitar. In addition to the volume , the bass and treble can also be adjusted individually to optimally tailor the sound to different applications. A built-in tuner completes the features and allows for quick and precise tuning of the guitar at any time.

Aztec Gold Finish

The Fender California Deluxe Monterey E Aztec Gold is also visually impressive. The attractive Aztec Gold finish gives the guitar an elegant yet understated appearance. Stylish ivory bindings and a colour-coordinated ivory pickguard emphasise the instrument’s classic character and provide a tasteful contrast. The design is rounded off by the distinctive Fender headstock, which gives the model an unmistakable look.
