Description
A Fender- and Fishman-designed Sonitone Plus pickup amplifies the full, balanced tone of the Paramount PD-220E’s dreadnought 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 undersaddle Sonicore pickup. Additional appointments include snowflake-shaped pearloid fingerboard inlays; feathered purfling, rosette and backstrip; an ovangkol bridge and fingerboard; slim-taper mahogany neck; and a bone nut and saddle.
The Paramount PD-220E comes with a hardshell case.
