The Fender Monterey Standard is designed for effortless playability and rich, balanced tone, making it an inspiring choice for players of all levels. Its comfortable mid-sized concert body, crafted from all-laminated sapele, delivers warmth and clarity suited for a variety of styles. The deep wood grain adds a natural, striking aesthetic, while the satin urethane finish ensures a smooth feel.

Built for comfort, the Monterey Standard features a slim "C"-shaped nato neck with rounded fingerboard edges, a short 24.75" scale length for lower string tension, and a narrow string spacing at the bridge—ideal for players with smaller hands or those seeking reduced picking-hand fatigue. The 6-in-line headstock, inspired by Fender’s 1970s electric guitar designs, adds a distinctive touch.

Vintage-style tuning machines provide smooth and precise tuning stability, while the GraphTech NuBone nut and saddle enhance harmonic detail and resonance. Equipped with Fender’s FE-A2 preamp system, this guitar offers faithful sound reproduction when amplified, along with a built-in tuner for quick and easy adjustments.

The Monterey Standard is a bold and stylish instrument that blends playability, superior tone, and unique Fender character—perfect for those looking to stand out.
