Fender Highways Series At CME!
Reimagining the acoustic experience, the new Fender Highway Series guitars marry a thin, ergonomic form factor and a groundbreaking Fishman Fluence Acoustic Pickup system designed around a revolutionary bracing structure, to exhibit the tactile charm and unplugged resonance of acoustic guitars twice their size!
Crafted with either a solid Sitka spruce or genuine mahogany top inlaid into a fully chambered mahogany body, Fender Highway Series guitars are engineered with a tapered floating X bracing pattern and inventive thinline design, producing remarkable resonance and dynamic, organic tone.

The Fishman Fluence Acoustic Pickup system used in all Fender Highway series guitars incorporates an elegantly curved magnetic Fluence Core pickup with innovative all-analog technology, delivering pure amplified tone with astonishing sonic realism, clarity, and feedback resistance.

American manufacturers began making “artist editions” at least as far back as 1843, when C.F. Martin built the first ever X-braced Martin models for one of the most renowned soloists of the era, Madame Delores N. de Goñi. And although it’s not as often that we see de Goñi model come through Chicago Music Exchange's doors, we sometimes see a fair number of the earliest artist editions and signature models ever commercially produced—including the Gibson Nick Lucas and Roy Smeck models.
