Newporter™ Traveler, Rosewood



A short-scale, small-body dreadnought acoustic!




Fender first introduced the Newporter model
back in 1965 as one of its original sun-and-fun
acoustic guitars. Now it’s back in the form of
the Newporter Traveler - a full-sounding
mini-dreadnought with a shorter scale (22.6”)
that makes it great for beginners and anyone
looking for the perfect pick-up-and-go
acoustic.
Features include a spruce top with scalloped
X bracing and classic checkerboard rosette;
mahogany back and sides; natural satin
finish; mahogany neck with 20-fret rosewood
fingerboard, dual-action truss rod,
Stratocaster® headstock and satin finish;
rosewood bridge and vintage-style tuners with
aged white buttons
