Who isn’t hungry for an acoustic-electric that puts yesterday’s performance hassles in the rearview mirror?Mahogany and spruce tonewoods A solid Sitka spruce top gives this Fender Highway Series Dreadnought a bright, punchy sound balanced with mahogany back and sides for rich sustain. Together, these tonewoods deliver a timeless all-purpose sound while keeping this guitar incredibly lightweight and maneuverable. Moreover, floating X-bracing inside the sound chamber amps up the volume and balances sound to perfection — proof that Fender and the Highway Series are committed to acoustic excellence. Feedback-fighting properties The Highway Series body shape borrows cues from Fender’s Acoustasonic hybrid series with comfortable thinline chambering and a beveled armrest. Like the Acoustasonic, the Highway Series handles onstage like a dream and naturally suppresses pesky feedback! Given its feedback-squashing attributes, the Highway Series can conjure stage volumes far greater than any old-school acoustic-electric guitar. And the best part? The thinline body plays nicely with effects, too! Try adding a touch of chorus or reverb for a bigger, bolder, acoustic sound.Active Fishman electronics Much like acclaimed Fishman Fluence electric guitar pickups, the exciting new Fluence Acoustic pickup lets players enjoy world-class acoustic-electric tone without noise or hum. Fluence Acoustic systems are uniquely optimized for the different Fender Highway Series body shapes. This all-analog pickup offers top-mounted controls for quick onstage adjustments without missing a beat. Still, the Fluence system’s exciting innovation is arguably the sound of its patented pickup curvature. Conventional bar-shaped pickups register string movements in a straight, uniform line across all six strings. In contrast, the Fluence Acoustic curvature has individually optimized pickup points for each string, thereby eliminating the stiff, boxy presence of conventional soundhole pickups for a richer, more compelling sound. Tone-tweaking options In addition to volume controls, the Fluence Acoustic system’s contour knob lets players make punchy EQ adjustments with two core voices and blendable nuances to explore. Voice 1 offers a more “natural” acoustic guitar sound with fuller bass and is the go-to sound for singer/songwriters. Voice 2 reigns in bass with more high-end clarity and midrange muscle. This tighter voice gels well with drums, bass guitar, and more with a mix-cutting sound (it’s also great for soloing or getting the best sound out of pedals).Rugged features = fewer pitstops Acoustic guitar woes can wreak havoc on tight schedules when traveling. Thankfully, the Fender Highway Series is designed to handle bumps and curves so you can make the most of your day, whether exploring new cities or finding precious warm-up time backstage. The Highway Series Dreadnought’s bolt-on mahogany neck is more resilient than traditional acoustic guitar necks and infinitely less prone to shifts caused by swings in humidity and temperature. Road warriors relish having that consistent feel from gig to gig, and everyone can appreciate the way this bolt-on neck puts more notes at your fingertips with additional upper-fret access. More music and less maintenance? That’s a win-win!Fender Highway Series Dreadnought Acoustic-electric Guitar Features: An innovative thinline acoustic-electric design built for luxurious handling onstage Chambered mahogany body and a Sitka spruce top deliver rich acoustic and acoustic-electric tone Dreadnought body shape has an assertive all-purpose sound Fast mahogany neck with a “C” profile and rosewood fingerboard Bolt-on neck design improves neck stability and access to frets Soundport provides beautiful acoustic tones unplugged Floating internal X-bracing pushes output to the limit and preserves that responsive acoustic feel TUSQ hardware and sealed electric-style tuners preserve and enhance tone Fishman Fluence active pickup system delivers a natural sound with volume and contour EQ controls SpecificationDetail String Type Steel Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Shape Thinline Dreadnought Back & Sides Wood Chambered Mahogany Top Wood Sitka Spruce Top Finish Polyester Satin Color Natural Body Bracing Tapered Floating X Bracing Neck Wood Mahogany Neck Shape C Radius 12" Fingerboard Material Rosewood Fingerboard Inlay Dots Number of Frets 20, Narrow Tall Scale Length 25.5" Nut Width 1.6875" Nut/Saddle Material Tusq/Tusq Bridge Material Rosewood Tuning Machines Fender ClassicGear Electronics Fishman Fluence Acoustic Pickup Strings Fender Dura-Tone 860CL Coated Phosphor Bronze, .011-.052 Case/Gig Bag Softshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
