With scalloped x-bracing, a solid spruce top and on-board Fishman Presys electronics, the Fender CD-140SCE boasts features beyond its affordable price.

The re-designed Fender CD140SCE Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar is finally here. Don't let the price tag fool you; this guitar boasts premium features for an instrument of its class, including a spruce top, rolled fingerboard edges and a new "Easy-to-Play" neck shape.

The CD-140SCE is a top-tier Classic Design model which features a cutaway body for easy upper-fret access, a feature-packed Fishman Presys preamp, elegant rosewood back and sides, and a tortoiseshell pick guard. The dreadnought-sized body provides traditional full-bodied tone with plenty of projection. A great choice for any aspiring player, the CD-140SCE delivers a bold playing experience.

Fishman preamp with built in tuner

A Fishman pickup/preamp system gives your acoustic instrument peerless amplified performance, with a variety of onboard controls and no compromise whatsoever on pure, rich and resonant acoustic tone. The built-in tuner is conveniently placed right where you can see it, helping to keep your intonation right on the money

Scalloped Bracing

Scalloped bracing is thinner than more conventional bracing. That means that the bracing pattern inside the guitar uses less wood, which means that soundboard mass is reduced. This lets the top resonate more freely, resulting in better tone with more nuance and greater projection.

Solid Top

An acoustic guitar with a solid top literally resonates with a more individual tonal character, more "organic" consistency and a more "true" read more voice.

Excellent built guitar, even nicer looking in person than in the photos. Action right on, highly recommend this guitar. The case is nice and sturdy. But a little on the low side for padding, but it will protect the guitar. This is my 5th item I have gotten from zZounds, they are excellent and I will use them when ever I need my musical needs, great service and I recommend highly. They are a step above all others.
