Highlights

Historically-accurate Fender King dreadnought shape

Faithfully and thoroughly duplicated from genuine 1960s examples, the body shape of the California Vintage King is true to the original guitar’s design.

Performance-X Bracing

Forward-shifted and scalloped, the innovative Fender Performance-X acoustic bracing pattern was designed and engineered to produce more movement of the top resulting in unsurpassed resonance and tonal nuance.

All-solid wood construction

With a body crafted from all-solid woods, this instrument provides superior resonance, volume and dynamic range. Ovangkol is a premium tonewood revered for its smooth midrange, balanced bass and treble, and attractive grain pattern.

Fishman® Sonitone Plus electronics

Specially voiced for Fender instruments, this preamp features controls for volume and a knob for bending the body-sensing transducer with the undersaddle pickup for added nuance and detail. The soundhole-mounted controls preserve the vintage aesthetics.

Modern “V” Neck Profile

The modern “V” profile combines a soft “V” contoured back shape with a slim depth for a neck that fits comfortably in the palm for chording while offering effortless feel along the entire length of the neck.

Period Correct 6-in-line Headstock with Maple Headcap

Crafted with an okoume neck for optimal acoustic resonance and balanced tonal character, the look of the original guitar’s maple neck is retained with a maple headcap, capturing quintessential vintage Fender aesthetics.
