User questions & answers

Question:	what case that fit to these guitar
Answer:	The official answer that I got from Fender customer support is that this guitar, smaller frame and body as it has, is best suited for the Fender branded Classical Guitar case. That is what I have, and it fits like a glove so you won’t have to worry about your investment banging around inside the case while traveling. If you are looking for something other than Fender cases, just take the measurements from the case I mentioned above, and make sure the case you are looking at is at least that big. I hope this helps!
Question:	Does the newporter fit well in a standard dreadnought case
Answer:	Yes, this is the description of what I bought “ Fender Flat-Top Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar Case” and it fits good.
Question:	Is this guitar an electric acoustic
Answer:	yes, acoustic/electric
Question:	I love the factory strings, does anyone know what kind of strings come on the fender rodondo
Answer:	Hi, the strings on this guitar are the Fender Dura-Tone Coated 80/20 Bronze (.012-.052 Gauge). Thank you.

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.

A bold, modern twist on traditional acoustic aesthetics, they’re eye-catchingly appealing and uniquely Fender.

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.

A Fishman pickup/preamp system includes a variety of onboard controls for amplifying your acoustic instrument without compromising its pure, rich, and resonant tone. It also features a convenient built-in tuner.

User questions & answers

Question:	The guitar was missing one strap button, shouldn’t there be two
Answer:	This model, like a lot of cheaper acoustics, only has one. The easiest thing to do is tie the other end of the strap to the headstock, by the nut. Or you could have a second button installed at a guitar shop (or on your own if you're brave).
Question:	How long is the delivery? I need it on 27 for a present
Answer:	Probably won't make it in time now
Question:	How hard is it to tune yourself when you first get it? (Total rookie here- wanting to start learning
Answer:	There is a tuner. You just set it to the guitar and plink a string, then the tuner shows the tone. It’s very easy. I was a very beginner but could tune it immediately.
Question:	What’s the size difference between kid size and this guitar. It’s for an 8 year old. Is this too big
Answer:	Yes, it's going to be too big for most 8-year olds. I'd recommend that you go to a regular guitar store and try several out before making your decision, so you have some benchmarks to help you decide. There are 3/4 sized guitars which sound pretty decent for beginners, and also there are cutaways and double cutaways (Yamaha for example) with thinner bodies that make it easier for a child or small adult to learn. Also ask about the "scale" of the guitar. Regular scale is 25.5 inches, but slightly shorter guitars will be easier for children and small adults to play. I recommend that you buy a brand name, as well. If the guitar is well-made, the person is more likely to stay with it and end up learning to play the guitar.
