This is a great guitar for the price when people say you get what you pay for, that's right and you get a little more for your money on this FENDER. This Fender will out play out last the Martin 00CXE any day, the name came off the MARTIN Headstock after two weeks now is that what you want from a guitar that is to be # 1 I don't.
Sound
This Fender makes a sound that my Martin 00CXE could never make I think this is one of the best playing guitar you could ever want for the price, don't spend big bucks on a guitar just cause of the NAME, Fender did a great job with this guitar.
Features
It came a $144.00 hardshel case (FREE) beat that price.
Ease of Use
Nice action very easy to play very easy.
Quality
For the money it's made very well alot better then the Martin 00CXE at half the price and with a Nice case.
