More Info
Crafted with either a solid Sitka spruce or genuine Mahogany top inlaid into a fully chambered Mahogany body, Highway Series guitars are engineered with a proprietary internal architecture including a tapered floating X bracing pattern and inventive thinline design, producing remarkable resonance and dynamic, organic tone. With fidelity and performance at its core, the Fishman Fluence Acoustic Pickup system incorporates an elegantly curved magnetic Fluence® Core™ pickup with innovative all-analog technology to deliver pure and truly musical amplified tone with astonishing sonic realism, clarity and feedback resistance.
The Fender Highway Series represents not a revision, but a re-imagining of the acoustic experience, inviting players to throw away the map and get lost on the open road of creativity.
Representing a new evolution of modern performance acoustic guitar design, the body of the Highway series leverages Fender’s most advanced construction techniques including a floating “X” bracing pattern, inlaid solid top, and a unique 2.25“ thick chambered body for a a perfect harmony of comfort, resonance, and tonal quality. With a patent-pending curved form factor and all-analog electronics, the Fishman Fluence Acoustic pickup is the soul of the Highway Series. From its integrated mounting system to the unique internal architecture of the guitar every aspect of the guitar and pickup were innovated in tandem to provide pristine sonic clarity, responsiveness, and dynamic range all in a whisper-quiet noiseless design.
Designed in collaboration between Fender and our partners at Fishman, the Highway Series features intuitive controls for volume and contour, which pans between two different EQ settings giving the player unique tonal control without coloring the natural acoustic sound of the instrument. All Highway Series instruments are crafted at our state-of-the-art acoustic guitar manufacturing facility in Ensenada, Mexico. With its pleasingly dark look, smooth tactile feel and rich tonal character, Rosewood is a premium hardwood for acoustic guitar bridges and fingerboards. With comfortable padded backpack straps, durable outer material, and multiple pockets, the included deluxe gig bag provides the perfect balance of ample storage, road-worthy protection, and portability.
