Fender PO-220E Paramount Orchestra Acoustic Electric Guitar Natural

The Fender PO-220E Paramount combines state-of-the-art craftsmanship with vintage-inspired appointments, delivering the best of both worlds. Built with the choice of a solid spruce or solid mahogany top paired with solid mahogany back and sides, the PO-220E features an offset X-bracing pattern that has been carefully refined to optimize resonance and tone. A Fender and Fishman®-designed pickup amplifies the warm, mid-focused tone of the PO-220E’s newly designed orchestra body shape, while the soundhole-mounted controls preserve the vintage aesthetics. Under the top, a body-sensing pickup enhances the soundboard’s vibrations which can then be blended with the undersaddle S-Core pickup.

Updated cosmetics include snowflake-shaped pearloid fingerboard inlays, feathered purfling, rosette, and backstrip, and a Black or Tiger Stripe pickguard. The Fender PO-220E also features an ovangkol bridge and fingerboard, slim-taper mahogany neck, bone nut and saddle, and comes with a hardshell case.

Fishman electronics bring the plugged-in power

Plug in the Fender PO-220E and you’ll open a door to a possibility of plentiful tone-shaping options given its modern-designed electronics. With a Fishman Sonitone Plus Soundhole Pickup System, your orchestra sails tonal waters equipped with tone controls mounted directly under the soundhole. That means vintage aesthetics are preserved while offering you the modern, rich tone of a Fender Orchestra. Under the spruce top lies a body-sensing pickup that blends excellently with the under-saddle pickup for a full range of impeccably captured sonic vibrations.

Uber-playable “C”-shaped neck

Wrap your hand around the PO-220E’s neck and you’ll be pleasantly surprised. That’s because this Orchestra features a legendary “C”-shaped neck made from mahogany. Run up and down the fretboard, and you’ll comfortably play everything from ringing leads to sonorous chords. Take it from us here: this guitar will feel like an old friend!

Great tone packed in a comfortable orchestra body

This comfortable body shape sits easily in your lap while you perform, making reaching over the body to play a long gig all the more comfortable. Combined with an offset X-bracing pattern, the PO-220E’s mahogany body offers resilient resonance and warm, rich tone. How could you put it down? Well, we’ll let you know when we have!
