Overview

The "Surfer's Choice" for a quality 6-string.

In commemoration of Dick Dale's 45th anniversary release of his smash hit album that defined a generation, Surfer's Choice, we are pleased to announce the release of this very limited, unique and hip looking "Surfer's Choice" Malibu that includes some of the features of Dick's signature Malibu guitar including 3" body depth, onboard preamp with built in tuner, reverse headstock, plus the addition of one of a kind artwork designed by Dick and his crew. This beauty will be an instant classic just like the album that inspired it.

Built on a 3" deep folk body design, the Fender Malibu CE guitar features laminated spruce top, laminated mahogany back and sides, and scalloped X-bracing, offering well-balanced tone, with plenty of punchy projection. The maple neck, rosewood compensated bridge, and rosewood fretboard add clarity, and the vintage-style Fender tuners keep the 6-string in precise tuning from song to song. Featuring a killer "Surfer's Choice" paint job on the top and back makes the Dick Dale guitar a perfect instrument for sitting beach side by the campfire with your pals.

Other desirable features on the Dick Dale signature guitar include Fender Stratocaster reverse headstock shape with Dick Dale signature, dual-action truss rod, traditional Fender bridge, factory-mounted forward strap button with internal block reinforcement, white dot inlays, soft C-shaped neck, multiple body bindings, and a gloss finish completing the package.
