Fender Paramount PM-3

[tabby title=”Description”]
PI Fender Paramount
U.S.-designed Paramount series acoustic instruments are finely crafted and specially voiced to bring your artistic vision to life. Each all-solid guitar offers many legacy design elements of classic ’60s models, including checkerboard purfling and rosette, pickguard shape and abalone and mother-of-pearl “Concert Tone” fingerboard inlays. Even with this art deco look, Paramount instruments still retain their footing in modern design. All-new Fender- and Fishman®-designed PM preamp systems are specifically voiced for each body shape in the series, ensuring complete tonal control and variation.

The Paramount Standard Triple-0 features thoughtful vintage appointments as well as the craftsmanship of a truly high-performing instrument. Crafted from premium all-solid tone woods such as mahogany back and sides and Sitka spruce top and equipped with quartersawn scalloped “X”-bracing, the Standard Triple-0 cutaway model is designed with freely vibrating, resonant tone in mind. It also features a fast playing “C”-shaped mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard, both designed to accommodate the most demanding playing styles. Includes a humidifier and hardshell case.
