The limited edition Buck Owens Kingman™ pays homage to one of country music’s greats, a pioneer of the Bakersfield sound and one of Fender’s first acoustic artists. As the co-host of the hit TV variety show Hee Haw in the late 1960s and ‘70s, Buck Owens famously played guitars with red, white, and blue color schemes.

Engineered with an innovative Performance X™ bracing pattern, the dreadnought body of the Fender Buck Owens Kingman™ is lightly crafted with a solid spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides to effortlessly produce a substantial, bass-filled voice with exceptional detail, projection and volume. An ergonomic modern "C" profile was chosen for the neck along with a 25.5" scale length for optimal sustain, and a tilt-back 6-in-line headstock with a painted headcap featuring logos inspired by original examples of Buck Owens signature guitars. Other notable details include a bound rosewood fingerboard with pearloid block inlays for a throwback look, vintage-style tuning machines for smooth, accurate tuning, and a bone nut and saddle for superior harmonic character. Designed for the performer, the onboard Fishman® Presys VT Plus preamp system features seamless soundhole-mounted controls that blend an undersaddle piezo and internal body transducer to allow faithful and reliable reproduction of the guitar's natural sound when plugged into an amplifier or recording device. A vintage-style custom signature hardshell case is included.

Highlights

RED, WHITE & BLUE PAINT SCHEME

An homage to original examples of Buck Owens signature models of the ‘60s and ’70s, this finish was a standout feature that helped make his TV appearances so memorable and iconic.

HISTORICALLY-ACCURATE FENDER KINGMAN DREADNOUGHT SHAPE

Faithfully and thoroughly duplicated from genuine 1960s examples, the body shape of the Kingman is true to the original guitar’s design.

PERFORMANCE-X™ BRACING

Forward-shifted and scalloped, the innovative Fender Performance-X™ acoustic bracing pattern was designed and engineered to produce more movement of the top resulting in unsurpassed resonance and tonal nuance.

ALL-SOLID WOOD CONSTRUCTION

With a body crafted from all-solid woods, this instrument provides superior resonance, volume and dynamic range.

FISMAN® PRESYS VT PLUS ELECTRONICS

Specially voiced for Fender instruments, this preamp features controls for volume and a knob for bending the body-sensing transducer with the undersaddle pickup for added nuance and detail. The soundhole-mounted controls preserve the vintage aesthetics.

MODERN 'C' NECK PROFILE

The modern “C” profile combines a rounded “C” back shape with a slim depth for a neck that fits comfortably in the palm for chording while offering effortless feel along the entire length of the neck.
