All-mahogany body sets the stage





Musicians of all stripes covet all-mahogany acoustic guitars like the Fender Sonoran Mini. When strummed, the guitar produces a refined, if not understated, tone with tight bass, midrange presence, and well-behaved highs. Add in the walnut fingerboard and bridge’s extra resonance and bright snap, and the Sonoran Mini becomes a well-balanced music-making machine. Indeed, the Fender Sonoran Mini provides a solid foundation upon which you can build show-stopping arrangements in the studio or ably accompany a singer onstage.





Scaled-down for comfortable playability





The Fender Sonoran Mini is everything Sweetwater looks for in a well-priced acoustic guitar. The small body size makes it an excellent couch guitar, but the real star is the short scale length. Measuring 24.1 inches ? 1.4 inches shorter than most Fenders ? the scale length gives the strings a softened feel. As a result, you’ll play for hours in total comfort!





Descended from sunny southern California





Throughout the ’60s, brightly colored acoustic guitars bearing the Fender name and Stratocaster headstock dotted the West Coast and beyond. The Fender acoustics ushered in a new movement away from the major acoustic manufacturers that offered antiquated instruments. Fender’s California series of acoustic guitars pays homage to the company’s early acoustic roots with updated takes on the classic designs. Each California Series guitar comes with a radiant attitude all its own.
