I purchased this based on a number od reviews and youtube videos. I own an HD-28, Taylor 814CE, Gibson J-185 Custom Quilt and numerous other acoustics. This is a very nice guitar in the price range considering it has Adirondack spruce, Rosewood, ebony, binding and cool purfling. Even the bracing is light and shaped! It sounds just a bit thin compared to my Martin and Taylor but not far off the mark. The body is light weight overall and the neck seems to be a little on the heavy side making the guitar a bit unbalanced. Not too objectionable though. The neck profile is thin and easy to play. I sanded the Bone saddle down and shaped it for a bit more radius to conform to the neck better and lower the action slightly. It is a comfortable player and sounds very good plugged in for stage work. Unplugged a comfortable strummer and OK for finger picking.
Overall I would rate this guitar a good buy and a quality instrument with an above average sound in this price range. I own about 15 Fender guitars and basses and this is my first acoustic from them. The offshore partnership brought in a good guitar at the right price with good playability and sound. GOOD JOB FENDER!

I've had a 2000 dollar Martin and a 3000 dollar Taylor. This guitar sounds just as good and comes with higher quality appointments such as all the bone nut stuff and the built in tuner. It sounds great and is absolutely a beautiful guitar. Great job Fender.

I played for 35 years i always liked fender electric Guitars. i also play tons of acoustics i seen this and thought wow solid hard wood must be a great Guitar...So i purchased it wow was i WRONG TO SAY this was the worst Guitar i ever held sad but true. neck was very thin and week the body was a bit small but OK sound was bad for a solid hard wood Guitar over priced big time trust me. am sending this back asap and purchasing a better made but cheaper guitar like the Epiphones. am sad that fender will not make a nice Jumbo out of walnut or Indian Rosewood stop being cheap on the acoustics please fender that is where your going wrong.
