Sound: I've been gigging the local area about 30+ times a year-starting on an Ibanez. I was not satisfied with the sound and so I tried playing on a few different guitars-but when I picked up that Fender cd 220 -it was love at first sound-I was more than mezmorized by the rich tone and the eaze of fretting that Fender acoustic electric-realize that I do not have very strong fingers and so that was a great concern for me-no problem -I just played-and you'll want to keep playing untill the midnight oil burns down. This Fender has the most amazing sound that I have heard-(dollar for dollar)! I play through a PA system and I love the quality of the tone (very bright)-you can play without an amp-but this guitar was made to be amped up in my books and it can turn some heads. I do not believe you will be dissapointed. It's a beauty as well! Feature: I love the on board tuner-When your in the middle of a gig and a string goes on red alert- it takes only a minute to check them out and your back in the saddle. I'm not a quick ear and when I was on stage without the tuner-the pressure is on to get it right-quickly-it didn't always turn out too good. I've read some reviews that the tuner isn't that good-I dissagree- there may be better ones- but I think this one more than pulls its weight. Naturally the tone controls are great as you can adjust them to your liking- Ease of Use: I've covered this base-no set up-just plug it in and strap the strings-beautiful-now that's the way I like it. Take me away-cause I'm dreaming-Like-"beam me up Scotty-Warp factor 7" Quality: I'm guessing you could always say 'there's a better one'-but this is one beautiful guitar from it's head to its toes. It has that 'Wowzer' factor! Value: For the money-I don't think you will find a better value. As you can tell I am sold on the Fender cd220- I have two of them and a Fender 12 string. They are great guitars and I travel with them quite a bit. I thought about using a gig soft case-but thin I thought about falling down with it-which I did do coming home and missing a step-"clunk" right in the middle of my case- fortunately I purchased a fortified case-well worth it. Manufacturer Support: Not any need to. thx fer asking tho- The Wow Factor: you will like it, It will like you. It will be your friend. It will sooth your woefull soul. I wanted it-I bot it-and I am happy and soothed. Are you happy? You should be-you can be. What more could you want? Overall: They say you can't teach an old dogg new tricks-well, I've been playing Fender for 2 1/2 years and that's quite a new trick. I'm selling my Ibanez, my Alvarez, and my LP knockoff- I'm a Fender dude now. It took a while to figure that out-Just pick one up- Cd220-you'll be glad you did. I can't think of any other sayings-so just buy one.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission.
