Overall: I purchased this Fender guitar from zZounds after reading different reviews of their business. These people are really great. My guitar was sent to my house by Fed Ex and arrived in 3 days, inside the guitar case in perfect condition. Its been about 20 years since I have played and this guitar is really great, and with the built in tuner, it makes things real easy. I practice about 1 hour a day, and I must say that the guitar rarely goes out of tune. These guys at zZounds.com are very reasonably priced and I will be making further purchases from them for guitar equipment. A good buy for a good product

Sound: After letting it acclimatize (Texas is very hot this summer and the box definitely got warm on the delivery truck) we began to set it up. The CD-60CE has a built-in Fishman tuner/amplilfier and we were quickly able to tune it and adjust the truss rod. Within a day, the action settled to 2mm at the 12th fret. The Fishman's tuner agreed with my Korg standalone tuner. Initially, the intonation was slightly off on the D and A strings but that has settled in over the next couple of days. The guitar has a laminated spruce top with laminated Nato back and sides. These combine to create a warm, rich tone when played acoustically, and the stock Fender Dura-Tone coated strings actually aren't half bad. I should also say, it projects very well, and has a good acoustic volume output. It also has a very good tone when played electrically. My daughter has a Fender Frontman 25R and the 3-band Fishman gives a lot of options for altering the sound. Feature: The CD-60CE has a built-in Fishman tuner/3-band preamp and we were quickly able to tune it and adjust the truss rod. The action settled to 2mm at the 12th fret. The Fishman's tuner agreed with my Korg standalone tuner. It also included a high-quality locking Fender hard case. Ease of Use: Very simple to use. Controls are intuitive and typical of acoustic/electric guitars. Quality: I recently purchased a Fender CD-60CE Classic Design Acoustic-Electric Guitar (with Case) for my high school-age daughter to use in her music theory class using their interest-free, 4-payment option. The order was processed quickly and the order arrived in just a few days. The guitar was very well packed and protected for the trip. Both the guitar (sunburst), and the hard case were in excellent condition and looked great. There were no finish issues and the wood looks very nice. Value: Overall (especially when considering the price) this guitar and case combo offers a lot of bang for the buck. Manufacturer Support: Haven't needed anything, but it's Fender so I don't expect any issues. The Wow Factor: The sunburst finish, and the case look great. I think it looks terrific and my daughter is excited to use it in the class. Overall: I believe it will take my daughter quite a while (if ever) to expand beyond it's capabilities. We should have this for quite a while, and the laminated top, back and sides will help it stay is good shape.

Sound: This guitar has the bright sound you hear from Taylors, which is a personal preference, and one I like. The strings that came with it started sounding dead in a couple of months, which was not a problem; new strings and it brightened up again. The sound is pretty amazing for a laminated guitar and for the price. Plugged in, it sounds great, thanks to a Fishman pickup. I have a Roland AC60 which makes it sound like a much higher priced instrument (love! that amp!)The lutier that did the work on it was even impressed with the sound. Feature: It came with a fully lined hard case, thank you very much. I love having an on-board tuner, and 3 band EQ. Quality: The tuners could be a bit tighter. I had some work done to lower the action and file down some frets, but other than that, I'm happy. The finish is well done and I appreciate the Fishman pickup. Value: Bang for the buck, this is a great low-priced guitar. I normally boycott anything made in China, but have to admit, I'm very happy with this. I would heartily recommend it if you are looking in this price point. The Wow Factor: Really? Overall: I figured this would be a starter guitar, eventually being a 'beater' but every time I go out to play different guitars and weigh spending the cash vs. waiting a bit more, I find that the sound is satisfying enough that I don't have to rush into anything. That says a lot. Yes, I keep eyeing my future Taylor, but this guitar is good enough for gigging so I'm not in a hurry anymore. I will always keep it as a second guitar, and am very happy with my purchase. If it were lost or stolen, I would definitely buy it again as a backup guitar.
