Fender California Series

Inspired by the California lifestyle—colorful, energetic and independent—we fused our electric guitar DNA with exceptional acoustic playability and tone to craft the California Series. Instruments as individual as the artists who play them, California Series guitars have unexpected, electric-inspired style that stands out. A bold, modern twist on traditional acoustic aesthetics, they’re eye-catchingly appealing and uniquely Fender.

Fender Kingman Bass

Solid Spruce Top

The soundboard provides the most important tonal element of an acoustic guitar. Spruce is the standard choice, as few woods can beat its strength, sound, and dynamic range. Solid spruce tops are known for opening up and sounding better over time.

Fishman Presys Preamp and Tuner

Complete with tuner, frequency (bass, middle and treble) and phase controls, this collaboration in preamp design is specially voiced for each California Series body shape.

Electric Guitar-Inspired Features

The matching painted 6-in-line headstock on this guitar is immediately recognizable and exudes classic Fender vibe. The supremely comfortable slim-taper "C"-shaped mahogany Jazz Bass neck will feel familiar to electric players and is also suited to acoustic players looking for a slimmer neck.

User questions & answers

Question:	How do you replace the 9 volt battery on it? I just got it and already needs a new battery. No instructions on it
Answer:	The black plate on the lower bottom bout that includes the input jack also has a battery box door. This door has the word 'Fishman' on it. Sometimes the batteries are still in their original packaging. You may just need to open the battery box door, take off thin film of plastic and correctly re install. Keeping the batteries in their packaging helps to ensure you are shipped a good battery. Also, please remember to unplug bass when not in use, or it will drain the 9 Volt battery.
Question:	Does this bass guitar have an input for a instrument cable so that I can connect it to an amp
Answer:	Yes, there is a female 1/4" input jack located on lower bout. (Not pictured by Fender or most other sellers) This input jack is part of a discretely placed curved plate that also allows easy access to change the 9 volt battery used to power the Fishman onboard tuner and pre amp. A 90 degree right angle male 1/4" cable is recommended so if you happen to set bass down, all the stress is not on a straight cable connector or the basses input jack. Plug into a Rumble bass amp, acoustic amp, PA, or recording equipment for many hours of enjoyment. Unplug when not being used to keep battery from draining.
Question:	Does this come with a case
Answer:	Unfortunately, this Fender Acoustic Bass does not include a case or bag. However Fender does have a black nylon gig bag they recommend under part # 099-1535-206.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this an original fender product
Answer:	I believe it is manufactured in China to Fender specifications. I think it sounds good.
Question:	Can it be restrung with nylon strings
Answer:	I'm a new guitar player and do not know the answer to this question, however saying that, I believe the sounds with nylon strings would not be sharp and clean as with metal strings......good luck....
Question:	some guitars are more difficult due to the amount of pressure needed on strings by fingers. How does this guitar relate to that
Answer:	Not much pressure at all. Great guitar from beginners!!
Question:	Is the Yamaha worth a $100 more than this one
Answer:	It's an instrument that emits sound. Paying an additional $100 bucks may or may not be worth it. I guess if you played both instruments side by side you could make a better decision. I do not know what your playing level easy, but if you are a beginner the Fender would be the best choice. Once you progress, and improve on your playing ability, then you would be in a better position see if you are going to stick with it and purchase the more expensive guitar. Always purchase based on your budget. If you are purchasing using a credit card and it puts you further in debt would it really be worth it?

User questions & answers

Question:	What type strings are on this guitar
Answer:	Steel strings. It is a very nice guitar
Question:	Which strings do I need to buy for spares
Answer:	Amazon has included two very different-style guitars on this one product description page - and the ratings and answered questions are also combined. Be sure to replace the strings with ones that are intended for the guitar model you purchased: The "Classical" model requires "Nylon" strings only (the 3 bass strings on a Classical guitar look metallic - but are not made of steel - they are made with nylon cores wrapped with thin copper wire). Only the "Dreadnought" model comes equipped with "Steel" strings; it is constructed with heavier wood and bracing to withstand the extra tension from steel strings. Only replace the original strings with ones intended for your guitar! Nylon and Steel-string acoustic guitars also sound very different. If you're uncertain about which style guitar (nylon or steel) to purchase, you can find many great examples of each on YouTube. Also, consider that nylon strings are more gentle on young fingers (and also easier on the ears of other family members...). Enjoy your purchase! Even as our world becomes more-crowded, there's still plenty of room for more music!
Question:	Would this guitar be good for a 12 year old girl
Answer:	Yes. I bought one for my 10y.o. granddaughter and its a little big but it has good sound and quality. She will be able to use it for many years as Fender is a good name unlike some of the cheaper makes.
Question:	Is this also for a left hand person
Answer:	Acoustic guitars are not symmetrical; although the differences in string height and length are small - those differences have a BIG effect on sound quality and performance! Reversing the string order properly also requires skillfully replacing the nut, bridge and saddle; a big deal, typically costing more than $100 over and above the initial cost for the guitar itself. The "good news" is that most left-handed people acquire dexterity from an early age, to survive in a right-handed world (I am a "southpaw" myself) so any initial awkwardness is likely to be temporary. After some months - if her interest develops into a passion to perform professionally - you might then consider trading-up to a guitar especially-designed for left-handed play...
