General

For a pleasant dose of sixties atmosphere, guitarists need to look no further than Fender's California line. The Surf Green electro-acoustic Fender Sonoran SCE is a delightfully fresh model from this vintage series. Its unusually green body and Stratocaster-style headstock, as well as its sparkling pearloid pickguard make it a very striking instrument. Its looks are very attractive, and so is its sound, which is excellent both acoustically and amplified.

Sonoran SCE Surf Green: value for money

The Fender Sonoran SCE Surf Green is excellent value for money as we can tell from the abundant positive feedback from Sonoran players. For starters, this guitar features a solid top that warrants a strong, clear sound that carries far and makes for an excellent combination with the known clear sound of the steel strings. On top of that, the Sonoran SCE is a delightfully smooth instrument to play.

Ready for stage use

An electro-acoustic guitar is perfectly suited for use on stage. The Fender Sonoran SCE is equipped with a piezo pickup that neatly transfers the sound to the built-in Fishman preamp which can then be used to accurately modify the sound, by means of its 3-band EQ, before sending it to a mixer or sound card (for instance). With the help of the internal tuning device (with a clear display) you are able to easily tune this guitar.
