Beach Vibes with Professional Perks!

The California Vintage Palomino by Fender blends solid tonewoods, stage-ready features, and West Coast style into one timeless acoustic-electric guitar that demands double takes! Bold tonewood credentials across the entire body include a solid Sitka spruce top, ovangkol back and sides, an okoume neck, and an ovangkol fingerboard. Such vibrant materials usher the classic appeal of full-bodied acoustic tone packed with plenty of volume and projection. Sweetwater guitarists have found the Auditorium body shape makes the California Vintage Palomino playable and balanced in any scenario. Meanwhile, an okoume neck with a vintage-inspired modern “V” carve optimizes comfort for strums, plucks, and picking across an ovangkol fingerboard. The California Vintage Palomino’s built-in Fishman Sonitone Plus system delivers top-notch amplification for an authentic sound fueled by not just one but two capture points for sound. Finally, this masterpiece is stitched together with a Viking-style bridge, bold block inlays, and a Stratocaster headstock for chiseled looks that mirror the rugged, beautiful duality of West Coast terrain.

Solid tonewoods up the ante

Par for the course, the Fender team sourced high-quality solid tonewoods for the California Vintage Palomino acoustic-electric guitar. A solid Sitka spruce top delivers gold-standard acoustic guitar tone with strong resonance and a dynamic sensitivity that fuels passionate playing. Ovangkol back and sides support spruce with lasting sustain and a full-bodied tone that’s frequently compared to mahogany. These tonewoods pair well with the fine-tuned power, playability, and focus of an Auditorium body style. Auditorium guitars walk a fine line by enhancing the dimensions of all-purpose dreadnoughts with some player-friendly tweaks. At either end, your hands are freer to fret and strum, thanks to a drawn-in waist that also enhances clarity. Such features make the California Vintage Palomino an exceptional pick for gigs and recording, but most importantly, the guitar is downright fun to play hour after hour.

“V” is for vintage ... with a modern twist!

“V” neck profiles are making a serious comeback, and for good reason! This retro neck style features a subtle ridge that gives your thumb better comfort and support. “V” necks were widespread when guitars were built with hand tools. Modern machinery made smoother shapes possible, but many players still value the extra grip and support the old-school “V” provides. The Fender California Vintage Palomino’s okoume neck optimizes the “V”-shape neck to suit today’s players, and the result is a modern feel with just the right grip for accurate fretting.

Dual-source electronics

Developed by Fishman and Fender, the Sonitone Plus is a pickup/preamp combo that captures your acoustic’s sound in two places rather than just one. An under-saddle piezo captures all the snap and pluck of strings and surface frequencies, while an internal body transducer gathers important nuances within the sound chamber. The resulting tone is richer and more vibrant when plugging in. What’s more, the Sonitone Plus system protects good looks with controls placed discreetly within the soundhole, including a blend control for mixing the Sonitone Plus’ dual sources into something just right for you and your audience’s ears.
