The Fender Paramount PO-220E is a remarkable electro acoustic orchestra guitar that seamlessly combines modern craftsmanship with vintage charm. It offers the best of both worlds! This guitar comes with a choice of a solid spruce or solid mahogany top, paired with solid mahogany back and sides. The offset X-bracing pattern has been meticulously refined to maximize resonance and produce a rich, warm tone. The Fender and Fishman®-designed pickup system amplifies the mid-focused warmth of the newly designed orchestra body shape. The soundhole-mounted controls not only preserve the vintage look but also provide easy access. Under the top, a body-sensing pickup enhances the soundboard's vibrations and can be blended with the undersaddle S-Core pickup. The updated cosmetics include snowflake-shaped Pearloid fingerboard inlays, feathered purfling, a beautiful rosette, and a backstrip. It also features a 1-Ply Tiger Striped pickguard. The PO-220E has an ovangkol bridge and fingerboard, a slim-taper mahogany neck, a bone nut and saddle, and comes with a deluxe black hardshell case.

Using your Fender Paramount PO-220E guitar is easy. First, make sure it's in tune using the open - back tuners. The soundhole - mounted controls let you adjust the tone to your liking. Whether you're playing acoustically or plugging it in with the Fender and Fishman® pickup system, it'll sound great. When it comes to maintenance, keep your guitar in the provided hardshell case when not in use to protect it from damage. Wipe the strings down after each use to prevent corrosion and keep the tone clear. If you notice the action getting too high or low, you might need to adjust the saddle. But if you're not sure, it's best to take it to a professional guitar technician. Avoid exposing your guitar to extreme temperatures and humidity, as this can damage the wood and affect the sound. With proper care, your Fender Paramount PO - 220E will serve you well for years to come.
