A seriously cool and relatively rare piece from Fender’s high-end acoustic output, this USA Select Kingman V blends classic dreadnought tone with unmistakable Fender electric DNA, most notably the Strat-style headstock and maple neck feel.

Built in the USA as part of Fender’s premium American Select series, this is not your average Fender acoustic; it’s an all-solid wood instrument with proper projection, balance, and a unique personality that stands apart from the usual Martin/Gibson crowd.
