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.
