General

Fender has given the MA-1 3/4-size parlour-style acoustic guitar a number of upgrades so you can count on the kind of ergonomic comfort you'd expect from a much more expensive instrument. Its size makes it ideal for children from eight years and up who want to learn to play this timeless guitar. Adults can enjoy it too, of course, especially because its compact size makes it easy to take with you wherever you go. This fresh pink model is truly unique, but act fast if you want one, as they're available in a limited quantity only!

MA-1: ergonomics

The 3/4 body of this Fender MA-1 is a lot easier to handle than a full-size acoustic Dreadnought or jumbo, not only because the body is smaller, but the scale length is a lot shorter too. As a result, the frets are closer together than on a standard guitar, making it easier for children to learn complex chords. Fender has fitted this instrument with high-quality components like a rosewood bridge with compensated saddle and a synthetic bone string nut.

Versatile sound

For the side and back of this parlour guitar, Fender opted for sapele, a tropical wood type that gives the MA-1 a full, warm tone and an impressive appearance as well. Combined with an agathis top and Fender Dura-Tone 880L strings, this steel-string offers a balanced sound with a bit of sparkle. The Fender logo on the head stock and the decorative rosette add the finishing touches to the MA-1, which looks as good as it sounds.
