The Fender Malibu Special: Compact Comfort and All Solid Tone
All Solid Okoume Acoustic Guitar
The Fender Malibu Special pairs an X braced solid okoume top with solid okoume back and sides for an articulate, punchy, and delicate acoustic voice. Its compact Malibu body shape offers comfortable handling for extended playing sessions while the satin Honey Burst finish gives the guitar a bold and distinctive appearance.
Short Scale Fender Playability
A mahogany neck with a slim C profile and satin urethane finish delivers an easy playing feel. The short scale length keeps the instrument comfortable and responsive, while the tilt back six in line headstock gives the Malibu Special a look inspired by Fender electric guitar design.
Fishman Flex Body Electronics
The Fishman Flex Body preamp system combines an undersaddle piezo with an internal body transducer to reproduce the guitar's natural sound through an amplifier, PA system, or recording device. Volume, tone, blend, and phase controls provide practical adjustment for live performance and recording.
Refined Acoustic Guitar Appointments
A pau ferro fingerboard, maple rosette, maple body binding, maple dot inlays, vintage style tuning machines, and nickel hardware complete the presentation. A bone nut and saddle support rich harmonic character, while the included FAS 620 Deluxe Gig Bag provides convenient protection and transport.
