In the early 1960s, Southern California was a hub of fearless creativity, and Leo Fender, a renowned product designer, set out to create a new line of acoustic instruments that captured the cutting-edge spirit of the artists around him. Partnering with renowned luthier Roger Rossmeisl, Leo introduced several distinctive acoustic models that embodied the unique character that solidified Fender as a symbol of the rock-and-roll revolution. With iconic headstock shapes, user-friendly neck profiles, and bold styling, Fender Acoustics was forever transformed. Today's Fender California Vintage models pay tribute to their mid-century roots with a retro visual aesthetic, while also delivering 21st century performance and a sophisticated acoustic sound - a contemporary take on Fender's esteemed legacy.
Crafted with a revolutionary Performance-X™ bracing design, the Fender California Vintage King features a dreadnought body made from a lightweight solid Sitka spruce top and solid Ovangkol back and sides. This combination produces a rich and deep bass tone with outstanding clarity, projection, and volume. The ergonomic modern "V" profile okoume neck and 25.5" scale length provide optimal sustain, while the tilt-back 6-in-line headstock with a maple head cap adds a unique touch, influenced by Fender's iconic electric guitars.
