Fender California Deluxe Newporter CE Walnut Fingerboard

The Fender California Deluxe Newporter CE brings a slope-shouldered cutaway body to the Australian stage and studio, combining solid Sitka spruce top construction with laminate mahogany back and sides. Scalloped X-bracing reinforces the body to deliver full, balanced acoustic response. The cutaway design provides unfettered access to the upper frets, extending playable range without compromising the Newporter's distinctive visual profile. A walnut fingerboard anchors the playing surface in warm, responsive tonewood. Fishman CD-1 preamp electronics handle amplification duties, complete with an integrated tuner for quick tuning checks between songs. Sealed gear split-shaft tuning keys maintain pitch stability through extended playing sessions. The Micarta nut and saddle maximise string-to-body tonal transfer across all six strings. Factory-fitted phosphor bronze strings provide rich harmonic content straight from the case. The White Blonde finish coats the entire instrument in a classic Fender aesthetic that references the brand's storied electric guitar heritage while serving contemporary acoustic applications.
