Description

The Paramount PO-220E combines state-of-the-art craftsmanship with vintage-inspired appointments, delivering the best of both worlds. Built with the choice of a solid spruce or solid mahogany top paired with solid mahogany back and sides, the PO-220E features an offset X-bracing pattern that has been carefully refined to optimise resonance and tone.

A Fender and FishmanŽ-designed pickup amplifies the warm, mid-focused tone of the PO-220Es newly designed orchestra body shape, while the soundhole-mounted controls preserve the vintage aesthetics. Under the top, a body-sensing pickup enhances the soundboard's vibrations which can then be blended with the under saddle Sonicore pickup.

Updated cosmetics include snowflake-shaped pearloid fingerboard inlays, feathered purfling, rosette, and backstrip, and a Black or Tiger Stripe pickguard. The PO-220E also features an ovangkol bridge and fingerboard, slim-taper mahogany neck, bone nut and saddle, and comes with a hardshell case.

ALL-SOLID DESIGN

Paramount acoustics feature all-solid construction to deliver outstanding tone. Solid mahogany top, back and sides achieve a tone that's warm and balanced, while solid spruce tops are generally categorised as brighter, with a broad dynamic range. Solid spruce tops are known for opening up and sounding better over time.


FENDER- AND FISHMAN-DESIGNED SONITONE PLUS PREAMP

Specially voiced for the Paramount series, this preamp features a volume and a blend knob, allowing you to blend in the body-sensing transducer pickup with the Sonicore piezo. The soundhole-mounted controls preserve the vintage aesthetics


FEATHER-STYLE ROSETTE & PURFLING

Inspired by early vintage guitars, this feathered and checkered rosette and purfling pay homage to the classic acoustic designs of the 1930s and 40s.


FENDER-DESIGNED BODY

An Orchestra body shape is a first for the Paramount line of guitars and is a perfect addition to the lineup. Unique to this series, the orchestra body shape excels in offering a great warm-mid focused sound.


SATIN NECK FINISH

The PO-220E features a smooth, satin neck finish for comfort and playability


THE PERFECT PREMIUM CASE

Diligently designed to accommodate each Paramount acoustic to perfection, each moulded hardshell case features a useful storage compartment and plush interior lining making gig-to-gig transport a cinch.
