One of the most outlandish models offered by Fender over the years, the Maverick - also known as the Custom - may just be the boldest of them all. Comprised of leftover 12-string necks, bodies and pickups transformed into a very unique 6-string. It was like nothing else on the market, with a kind of misfit glamour that made it greater than the sum of its parts. Whether you loved it or not, playing a Maverick was a statement.
Inspired by the bravado of that original model, the Maverick Dorado kicks up the swagger with a pair of Tim Shaw designed Filtertron style humbucking pickups, a Bigsby vibrato and dark ebony fingerboard. Available in Mystic Pine Green, 3-Colour Sunburst and Firemist Gold, you're sure to cause a sensation with your Maverick Dorado.
LACQUER FINISH
The nitrocellulose lacquer finish not only lets the body breathe with its true tonal character, it also ages and wears in a distinctively personal way.
PREMIUM PICKUPS
Fat-sounding custom Tim Shaw-designed humbucking pickups under Filtertron covers give this guitar one-of-a-kind style and versatility.
THICK 60S C NECK SHAPE
The thick "60s C"-shaped neck profile is sculpted for a vintage-style playing feel. Its remarkably comfortable and ideal for any playing style.
BIGSBY VIBRATO
The Bigsby vibrato has a smooth feel, perfect for subtle vibrato along with a slick, retro aesthetic.
EBONY FINGERBOARD WITH BLOCK INLAYS AND BINDING
Falling somewhere between Maple and Rosewood, ebony provides smooth playing feel and articulate mids and highs. White pearl block inlays and white neck binding add a touch of high-class appeal.
24.75 SCALE
24.75 scale length provides a warmer sound and reduced string tension, making string bends easier.
