Fender FA-450CE Acoustic Bass Guitar - 3-Colour Sunburst
If you're looking for an acoustic bass guitar that delivers both eye-catching style and deep, resonant tone, the Fender FA-450CE is your perfect match. With its bold jumbo body, stage-ready electronics, and striking 3-Colour Sunburst finish, this bass is built to make an impression—both visually and sonically. Whether you’re jamming unplugged, recording, or plugging in for a gig, the FA-450CE provides the punch, warmth, and playability that every bassist craves.
Big Sound, Beautiful Tonewoods
At the heart of the FA-450CE is its jumbo cutaway body, designed to produce rich low-end resonance and impressive projection. The flame maple top adds brightness and clarity to the bass’s tone, while the mahogany back and sides bring in warmth and depth. Together, these tonewoods create a full-bodied sound that fills any room, whether you're playing solo or holding down the rhythm section in a band.
Comfortable Neck for Smooth Playing
A bass should feel as good as it sounds, and Fender nails it with the nato neck and Modern "C" profile. Whether you prefer smooth fingerstyle grooves or aggressive pick playing, the 9.5-inch radius laurel fingerboard provides a natural, comfortable feel, making it easy to transition up and down the neck. The 32-inch scale length is slightly shorter than a standard bass, reducing string tension and making fretting and bending feel effortless.
Plug In and Play with Fishman Electronics
When it’s time to take your bass to the stage or studio, the Fishman preamp system ensures your natural acoustic tone translates beautifully through an amp or PA system. With dedicated volume, bass, and treble controls, you can dial in the perfect sound, from warm and mellow to punchy and articulate. Need to adjust on the fly? No problem—the onboard controls make tweaking your tone quick and easy.
Classic Fender Aesthetic with Premium Touches
Beyond its fantastic playability, the FA-450CE boasts stunning visual details that make it a true standout. The glossy 3-Colour Sunburst finish enhances the flame maple top, while cream binding and a keystone rosette add a touch of refinement. The Viking bridge not only looks elegant but also improves sustain and resonance. And of course, the modern 2x2 headstock proudly carries Fender’s unmistakable style.
A Bass That Does It All
The Fender FA-450CE Acoustic Bass Guitar is designed for versatility, comfort, and pure sonic power. Whether you’re playing unplugged, plugged-in, on stage, or in the studio, this bass delivers rich tone, smooth playability, and a head-turning aesthetic. If you want an acoustic bass that stands out in every way, the FA-450CE is ready to groove with you.
