Your cart is empty.The Paramount PO-220E combines state-of-the-art craftsmanship with vintage-inspired appointments, delivering the best of both worlds. Built with a solid spruce top paired with solid mahogany back and sides, the PO-220E features an offset X-bracing pattern that has been carefully refined to optimize resonance and tone. A Fender and Fishman®-designed pickup amplifies the warm, mid-focused tone of the PO-220E’s newly designed orchestra body shape, while the soundhole-mounted controls preserve the vintage aesthetics. Under the top, a body-sensing pickup enhances the soundboard's vibrations which can then be blended with the undersaddle Sonicore pickup. Updated cosmetics include snowflake-shaped pearloid fingerboard inlays, feathered purfling, rosette, and backstrip, and a Black or Tiger Stripe pickguard. The PO-220E also features an ovangkol bridge and fingerboard, slim-taper mahogany neck, bone nut and saddle, and comes with a hardshell case.

パーラーサイズでオール単板のアコギを探していて発見した。恥ずかしながら、Fenderがこういうレトロなスタイルのアコギを出していることを知らなかった。驚くほど値下げされていたので思わず購入。パーラーサイズだがオール単板で胴も深めのためか音は深くしっかりしていてバランスも良い。タイガーストライプのピックガードやオープンバックのペグが1930年代的な雰囲気を醸し出して良い。寄木細工っぽいロゼッタやパーフリングも洒落たアクセントで良い感じ。外観はここまでオールドギター的なのにネックはCシェイプのスリムテーパーでサテン仕上げという現代的スタイルなのが面白い。しっかりしたハードケースが付いてくるのはありがたいが、金具が妙にキラキラしていて微妙に安っぽく見えるのはご愛嬌か。Fenderが作る現代風味を交えた1930年代風アコギという何だかよくわからないコンセプトだが、ギター自体は普通に良いものだと思う。ある程度しっかりしたパーラーサイズを探している人におすすめ。

This guitar was a lot smaller than I envisioned, but it has huge sound! Great Fender craftmanship, and it is a beauty to behold as well. The pickup controls were inside so I thought I had misread the description. Plugged it in to my amp and it sounded even better! The rigid case is also of good quality and a nice bonus! I bought a more expensive Fender electric guitar and it only came with a soft gig bag.

I cannot believe how good these guitars sound. Solid mahogany back, sides, top, neck, beautiful. Cutaway makes it even better. I bought two and they both sound amazing. Of course I changed strings 11-52 on one, the other 12-53, as soon as I opened the cases. Yes comes with a very good Fender case.Both guitars are fantastic! Satin finish, I put on some lemon oil and wiped off , guitar is wonderful looking and plays with very low action, no buzzing at all. Bound fingerboard is very nice, as well as Fender inlay on headstock. Tuning keys seem to hold tune for the last three weeks, anyway they work very well. I think this is a diamond in the rough, why Fender doesn't put a pickup in this one keeps me scratchin my head or is that something else? lol. Thanks Fender, Guitarmon, Maritimes Atlantic Canada A?

Guitar is well built, the Parlor Body Style/Size is perfect for me, and the guitar has a very good tone.

This review is for the full solid mahogany dreadnought guitar. Fender no longer lists it on their website, but you can find a brief video on their YouTube channel. It does not have a pickup and has a lower MSRP than the pickup-equipped Paramount guitars. The Amazon listing is a bit confusing this way. There's also a very similar full mahogany guitar, the Guild D-120, down to the tuners, which I found curious.I really like the sound and looks of this guitar, but there were too many QC issues for the premium pricing. A few frets buzz on the low E and A and will need a bit of filing most likely. Some sections of the body "natural" finish are too rough and look incomplete. There was some discoloration on the fingerboard, and it looks like this happened from the included QC card! One of the black fret markers was also missing, never seen that before.For those like me who care, the air and soundboard resonant frequency is around F#, and once I heard it, was quite noticeable (look up "wolf note" in the context of picked, not bowed, instruments). The guitar is extremely light and IMO they could have made it a bit heavier so that the dead frequency wasn't so obvious.The included case is great; the included humidifier is the Martin style one, a flexible tube with a water holding element inside.

I’ve owed this since January and I absolutely love this guitar. I think I got pretty lucky when I got it because it was only $280 brand new when I purchased it. $280 for a FULLY SOLID guitar with a hard shell case. Now it did need a few turns with the handy dandy hex key, but after that it was all good. It sounds awesome with some Daddario xs’s. The price of this guitar gets pretty low so I would wait until it gets to that $350 mark then jump on it because it is a awesome value.

This is a beautiful guitar and a typical mahogany sound (dry and bright). Out the box it was, like all new acoustics, unplayable, with too much neck relief and high bridge (strangely the nut slots were perfect). So I tweaked the neck rod and took a lot off the bridge to get it down from 3.5 m (I kid you not) to a decent 2.25m at the twelfth fret. Now it's playable. The pickups are good and faithfully reproduce it's bright sound. It's a cool country or rock guitar as new and should open up in a few years. As everyone says for an all solid wood guitar you cannot go wrong at the Amazon price.

This is an unbelievable guitar ! Beautiful sound and finish. The premium case is awesome! Really can’t believe I got a solid wood guitar with a premium case at this price point. What a deal. Did not have to adjust action and neck was straight. I changed the strings to my favorite so it came out of box ready to tune and play! If you have always wanted a solid wood guitar but could not afford I recommend this beautiful Fender PM-3. What a deal!

I like the lightweight feel of this guitar. Really nice tone too.The model that was shipped to me needed a slight truss rod adjustment, which made the action 100% better.Would definitely recommend

Bought this guitar based on the glowing 2021 reviews. I like the neck width and body style. Tried to find one but everyone was out of stock. Found on Amazon, shipped from Fender. Ordered it before a local Fender dealer called me that the one they had in stock had a defective neck set and truss rod. Received the guitar, and was impressed, except that the action had to be adjusted; way to high. I had a very busy gig schedule so I passed the guitar to my guitar tech for set up and I was in no hurry. Come to discover this guitar has a defective neck as well. A hump is present where the neck joins the body. Amazon directs me to Fender. Fender responds within a week, says I got to take it to an authorized service center. There is none within an hour travel, although there are many Fender certified techs around, several checked the guitar. I requested a tag to send it for analysis, repair or replacement, but the warranty doesn't cover it. Seems Fender had a bad batch of these to get rid , and the reviews where for version 2. Anyways, I paid over $800 for this, and now the price has gone over a grand. Lot's of great features, but you'd do better with something else.
