Fender California Deluxe Newporter CE ‘Sienna Sunburst’ Slope Shoulder Cutaway Acoustic Electric Guitar

Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne

The Fender California Deluxe Newporter CE is a refined slope-shoulder acoustic-electric with a visual identity as immediately distinctive as its tonal character - the Newporter’s gently sloping shoulder silhouette is one of the most recognisable and characterful body shapes in the California Series range, combining the warm, focused acoustic voice of a slope-shoulder body with the practical advantages of a Venetian cutaway that opens up the upper register without restriction. In Sienna Sunburst, the warm amber-to-brown burst glows beautifully across the solid Sitka spruce top, complemented by ivory binding, pearloid rosette, ivory pickguard, and a Jaguar-shaped headstock that completes a cohesive Fender aesthetic of genuine vintage California character.

The solid Sitka spruce top with scalloped X-bracing and laminate mahogany back and sides deliver a full, balanced acoustic tone with natural projection and tonal life, while the Fishman CD-1 preamp with onboard tuner and full EQ controls makes plugging in straightforward and stage-reliable. The slim C-shaped mahogany neck with 25.5" scale length, 1.6875" nut width, walnut fingerboard, and sealed die-cast split-shaft tuners provide a comfortable, familiar playing feel and dependable tuning stability. Ideal for singer-songwriters, performing musicians, and players who want a distinctive, stage-ready acoustic-electric with the warm character and expressive range of a slope-shoulder body format.

Features

  • Solid Sitka spruce top with laminate mahogany back and sides and scalloped X-bracing delivers a full, balanced, and naturally alive acoustic tone with the warm, focused character that the slope-shoulder body format is known for.
  • Venetian cutaway provides unrestricted access to the upper register for melodic and expressive lead playing - extending the Newporter CE’s creative and musical range well beyond a standard non-cutaway slope-shoulder body.
  • Fishman CD-1 preamp with volume, bass, treble, phase control, and onboard tuner delivers reliable, stage-ready amplified performance with practical onboard tone shaping for any live or recording context.
  • Sienna Sunburst gloss finish with ivory binding, pearloid rosette, ivory pickguard, and Jaguar-shaped headstock create a warm, cohesive vintage California aesthetic that is both immediately distinctive and entirely Fender in character.
  • Slim C-shaped mahogany neck with 25.5" scale and 1.6875" nut width provides a comfortable, electric-familiar playing feel suited to players who move between acoustic and electric instruments.
