The result of more than a decade of thoughtful design, the California Deluxe series is built to go wherever the music takes you. The California Deluxe Monterey™ E sets the bar high with refined construction and a tone that rises to every occasion.
Whether you’re composing at home or playing on stage, the California Deluxe Monterey™ E is made to follow you. Its classic folk-style body offers natural, comfortable playability, ideal for long sessions. It delivers a precise, articulate sound and an intimate tone that creates a strong connection between the musician and their instrument. The solid Sitka spruce top and laminated mahogany back and sides, reinforced by a scalloped X-bracing pattern, produce a rich, balanced tone with incomparable vitality. Other highlights include split-axle, sealed-gear tuners that ensure stable tuning even during the longest sets; Micarta® nut and saddle that optimize sound transfer from the strings; and phosphor bronze strings that deliver a rich, full tone from the very first note. Plug in with confidence thanks to the built-in Fishman® CD-1 preamp system with an integrated tuner for stage-ready amplification.
Versatile. Refined. Ready for anything. That’s the California Deluxe series!
