Thanks to its fully solid Orchestra construction , the Fender Paramount PO-220E 3TVS produces an extensive sound image with charming bass, assertive midrange and clear treble frequencies. These can unfold quickly and over a wide area due to the extra-flat bracing and the razor-thin finish, so that the acoustic guitar is excellently suited for fingerstyle, for example. At the same time, the flat neck promises obliging playability in all 20 frets , which intonate cleanly with the help of the high-quality bone hardware. Smooth tuners are inserted into the headstock to ensure precise tuning of the 6 steel strings . Conveniently, an active pickup system is built into the instrument, which transmits the acoustic sound to the amplifier without distortion. Visually, the guitar is kept very traditional and impresses with an eye-catching 3-tone vintage sunburst finish with a high-gloss finish . The scope of delivery includes a Fender Deluxe Black hardshell case .
The Orchestra models from the Fender Paramount series produce a balanced soundConstruction and woodsThanks to a Sitka spruce top with Scalloped-X bracing , the Orchestra produces a wide-ranging sound that is enriched with powerful midrange and defined treble frequencies, even when played lightly. Mahogany back and sides further complement each note with a pleasantly warm touch, making the overall sound very balanced. The mahogany neck features a flat 'C' profile for effortless gripping. This allows the entire Ovangkol fingerboard to be reached optimally in all positions, making even complex chords and fingering patterns a breeze. The bridge made of Ovangkol is equipped with noble ebony pins , with which the strings are fixed.
Hardware and designFor easy string tuning, the Paramount PO-220E 3TVS guitar is equipped with open nickel tuners that also perfectly match the generally traditional appearance. Meanwhile, a compensated bridge inlay and 43mm wide bone nut ensure clean sound development across the 643mm scale . The fretboard is adorned with delicate snowflake inlays that serve as a guide for the player. The top and soundhole are surrounded with Checkered inlays , which contrast the coloring of the top in a very aesthetic way. In addition, the top has an extensive tiger striped pickguard glued to it.
To allow the instrument to be used on stage, a Fishman Sonitone pickup system is built into the body. With the help of a piezo element under the saddle, the acoustic sound is transmitted directly to the preamp. This is elegantly concealed in the sound hole and includes a tone control as well as a volume control, so that the output signal can be individually adjusted. The active system is powered by a 9V block battery.
