Description

FENDER NEWPORTER CLASSIC HOT ROD RED METALLIC WITH CASE

Explore your individual creativity with the bold look and inspiring sound of the Newporter Classic. The Newporter's exclusive mid-sized body shape delivers a well-balanced volume and a resonant voice with great articulation. The fully painted solid Sitka spruce top and natural solid mahogany back and sides, along with the matching painted six-in-line headstock and koa binding and rosette, give it an elegant two-tone aesthetic designed for gigs.

The Newporter Classic's uncompromising attitude extends to its top-tier build quality, featuring optimized bracing for reduced mass and superior resonance, as well as an upgraded bone nut and saddle for exceptional sustain. It also includes a Fender and Fishman®-designed preamp system with specific voicing for the Newporter's body shape, allowing you to connect it to an amplifier without sacrificing the guitar's natural sound. The lightweight mahogany neck features a comfortable, subtly tapered "Slim C" profile that's easy to play for any style, while the pau ferro fingerboard and bridge further enhance the rich sonority of this instrument. With its superb playability, distinctive look, and unmistakable Fender feel, the Newporter Classic is an instrument that proudly defies acoustic instrument tradition.
