The exclusive small-body shape’s short scale gives it a slightly \"slinkier\" feel, encouraging you to reach for new chords and melodies. It looks as stunning as it sounds, with a gloss metallic solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides, as well as a matching painted 6-in-line headstock and crème binding giving it a shot of electrifying attitude. The bold style and balanced, articulate sound make the Malibu Player a natural partner on stage and in the studio.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe same no-compromise attitude that gives the Malibu Player its uniquely killer vibe extends to every aspect of its construction. It features optimized bracing for reduced mass and superior resonance, a Graph Tech NuBone nut and saddle for greater sustain and a Fishman preamp system that makes it easy to plug in without sacrificing the guitar's natural sound. The lightweight mahogany neck features a comfortable, easy-to-play, slim-taper \"C\"-shaped profile suitable for any playing style, and its walnut fingerboard and bridge further augment this instrument's vibrant tone. With superb playability, distinctive looks and unmistakable Fender vibe, the Malibu Player is an instrument for a new generation of fearless players.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e?Wood grain may vary from product photos shown.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFender-exclusive Malibu body shape\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFishman pickup\/preamp system\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePainted solid spruce top; painted mahogany back and sides\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMahogany neck with slim-taper \"C\"-shaped profile; walnut fingerboard and bridge\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatching painted 6-in-line Strat headstock\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eUNIQUE FENDER BODY SHAPE\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis guitar's unique body shape is a Fender exclusive, giving it a vintage-inspired look with a modern twist.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSOLID SPRUCE TOP\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpruce is the standard modern tone wood for fashioning the tops of acoustic guitars and other acoustic instruments - few woods can beat its strength, brightness and dynamic range, and it responds well to any acoustic playing style, from hard strumming to fast flatpicking to delicate fingerpicking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFISHMAN PREAMP AND TUNER\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Fishman pickup\/preamp system adds peerless amplified performance with a variety of onboard controls to your acoustic instrument without compromising its pure, rich and resonant tone.
