General

Fender's Coronado bass guitar is back. For bass players who like a Fender bass guitar that's a little different, and also has a special history, there's the Coronado Bass. Halfway through the sixties, Fender introduced their first electric hollow-body guitars in the Coronado series. They were special guitars that quickly became very popular. Today, the Coronado name is once again fully present within Fender's Modern Player series and the guitars feature an improved tone, build and even better looks.

Fender Modern Player Coronado Bass Candy Apple Red: maple and alder

The thin semi-hollow alder and maple body of the Coronado bass guitar has a maple top (with Alder Center-Block) and back with bindings. The Center-Block is a solid wooden beam in the middle of the body that spans the entire length, dividing it into two large tone chambers as it were. This greatly reduces feedback and provides the bass guitar with more tone and sustain. The top of the Coronado semi-acoustic bass guitar features striking f-shaped sound holes, also with bindings. The C-shaped neck of the Coronado bass guitar is made of maple and features a rosewood fretboard with 21 medium jumbo frets and immensely beautiful mother-of-pearl inlay position markers. The guitar features chrome hardware and the Fender Coronado logo on its headstock.

Pickups

The Fender Coronado 3-colour Sunburst is equipped with two Fideli'Tron humbucker pickups and a three-position pickup switch. It has four controls (volume and tone for each pickup) that bring to mind the knobs of many an amplifier. Vintage style! Additionally, this Fender Coronado guitar features an Adjusto-Matic bridge with a floating F trapeze tailpiece and a durable three-layer black pickguard to protect the body.

It is a beautiful semi-acoustic bass guitar by Fender, and has excellent tonal properties that make it well-suited for jazz, country, blues and rock 'n' roll.
