General
The sixties called, and they want their guitar back! It simply doesn't get more vintage than the Fender Paramount PM-3 Deluxe Triple O Sunburst electro-acoustic guitar. The entire line of Paramount guitars was designed in the former Custom Shop, but the instruments are produced in China to ensure top-quality materials at a low price. The result is a combination of nostalgic characteristics and modern-day technology like a custom-built preamp and user-friendly controls. What's more, it's just a stunning-looking instrument to behold.
Paramount PM-3 Deluxe Triple O Deluxe: solid sound
The beautifully-crafted cutaway body is made of East-Indian rosewood and has a sitka spruce top. The entire body is solid to ensure a full, round sound. In addition, the PM-3 Deluxe Triple O Sunburst features a Checkerboard rosette and binding as well as a Kingman-style pickguard to enhance that vintage sixties vibe. An ebony fretboard and bridge with bone saddle are taken straight from the models from the '70s, while the sleek, black headstock is adorned with the iconic Fender logo from the late '40s.
All-access guitar
This paramount guitar will appeal to just about any guitarist. Not only the shape, but also the C-profile neck makes this a comfortable guitar to play. Its special custom-built Fishman PM preamplifier ensures an authentic sound when amplified, as it's designed to maintain as natural a sound as possible. Its three controls (volume, treble and bass) and display with tuner and phase shifter are located in the shoulder of the guitar in an accessible yet discrete and minimalistic way.

Wrote the following about Fender Paramount PM-3 Deluxe Triple O Sunburst electro-acoustic steel-string guitar
Werkelijk een betaalbare gitaar met een prachtig geluid en schitterend afgewerkt. De lovende recensies kloppen helemaal.
Fender is expanding their Paramount series with four top-quality limited edition electro-acoustic steel-string guitars. These new PM-1 Dreadnought and PM-3 Triple-O models have a top made of solid Adirondack. After that, there's the choice between solid mahogany or solid rosewood back and sides.
The name Paramount calls up all kinds of associations, from major record labels to concert halls to studios to mountain tops. From now on, it will also be associated with this new Fender electro-acoustic guitar in three models: the Dreadnought, Parlour and the Triple O. First and foremost, these guitars offer high quality at a great price, which sounds great - or are they too good to be true?
