Fender California Deluxe Redondo Black

Fender California Deluxe Redondo CE for Stage, Studio and Songwriting!

The Fender California Deluxe Redondo CE combines the punch and responsiveness of a full-bodied acoustic with modern playability, reliable electronics and a distinct Fender character. With a solid Sitka spruce top, laminated mahogany body, cutaway and Fishman CD-1 preamp, it’s built for dynamic strumming, clear picking parts and amplified live tones.

Big Sound With Immediate Response

The Redondo body delivers a powerful foundation, strong projection and a wide frequency spectrum that cuts through whether you’re accompanying or taking a solo. The solid Sitka spruce top reacts lively to your attack and supports clear highs, defined mids and a robust acoustic core sound. Back and sides of laminated mahogany add warmth, stability and a balanced character that sits comfortably across many styles.

Sturdy Construction for Everyday Playing

The Scalloped-X bracing lets the top vibrate freely and provides an excellent balance of resonance, projection and structural stability. That makes the guitar suited to long home sessions, creative studio arrangements and reliable stage performance. The combination of a solid top, durable body construction and precisely tuned hardware turns the instrument into a versatile tool for singer-songwriters, acoustic pop, folk, country, rock and modern unplugged sounds.

Comfortable Neck and Precise Playability

The mahogany neck with a slim C profile sits comfortably in the hand and supports fluid chord changes, open voicings and melodic lines. The walnut fretboard with a 12" radius offers a familiar, modern surface that feels natural for both aggressive strumming and controlled fingerpicking. The 25.5" scale delivers clear string tension, clean intonation and an articulate tone. The Micarta nut and matching saddle promote even transfer of string vibration and contribute to consistent response.

Stage-Ready With Fishman Electronics

For amplified use the California Deluxe Redondo CE is equipped with the Fishman CD-1 preamp. The volume, bass and treble controls let you quickly dial in tones for an amp, PA or recording setup. The built-in tuner makes quick retuning between songs easy, while the phase switch helps control feedback when needed. Closed die-cast tuners with split shafts provide dependable tuning stability, and phosphor bronze strings deliver a full, overtone-rich fundamental right from the first chord.
