The Fender Sonoran Mini All Mahogany is the perfect travelling companion for musicians on the move who are looking for an acoustic guitar that doesn't compromise on quality. Inspired by the unique shape of the Fender Sonoran Mini, this compact guitar has a warm timbre, particularly in the mid-range thanks to its solid mahogany body, making it perfect for fingerpicking and playing the Blues. Its short scale length and slim C-profile neck guarantee a genuinely comfortable playing feel, in addition to which the guitar features some stylish details that belie its affordable price tag, including a set of vintage nickel machine heads with aged white plastic buttons and purfling on the front and back of the body. The Sonoran Mini All Mahogany also comes with a gig bag that is designed especially for the instrument's unique shape.
As its name suggests, the Fender Sonoran Mini All Mahogany's body is made entirely from solid mahogany, including the soundboard, which is reinforced with scalloped X bracing - giving the guitar a structure that combines sturdiness and optimum resonance. The neck, made from nato, a wood similar to mahogany, is home to a walnut fingerboard with 20 frets. The Viking bridge, also made from walnut, has a Nubone saddle, and the whole thing is finished off with a three-ply gold pickguard, further enhancing the instrument's aesthetic appeal. The iconic, instantly recognisable Fender Stratocaster-style headstock houses the aforementioned six vintage nickel machine heads with aged white buttons, which ensure reliable tuning stability.
With a short scale length of just 592mm (23.3 inches) and a compact Sonoran-style body, this guitar is not only aimed at adults looking for a travelling companion, but also at children and teenagers who might find standard models cumbersome. The guitar's smaller size makes it more comfortable to hold and easier to reach any position on the fingerboard, making learning to play easier for beginners and playability more comfortable for experienced guitarists. Ergonomic qualities aside, the guitar's looks also won't go unnoticed: The matt natural mahogany finish and the distinctive silhouette of the Stratocaster-style headstock add a unique touch of character that is bound to turn heads.
Fender is without doubt one of the most legendary guitar and amplifier manufacturers of all time. The company was founded in 1946 by its namesake Leo Fender († 1991), whose innovative ideas brought a breath of fresh air into the musical world. His Telecaster, Stratocaster, Precision Bass, and Jazz Bass are not only classics – they also continue to shape the styles of musicians in countless genres to this day. Timeless Fender amplifier models such as the Bassman, Twin, Deluxe, and Princeton also enjoy a stellar reputation. Besides maintaining its classic product portfolio, however, the company is also constantly developing new products that make Fender a driving force in today’s music industry.
