Fender CD-60S Solid Top Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar - Natural w/ Hard Case
The guitar came delivered, with everything included as advertised, and more. It was boxed and shipped with the guitar inside the case and also, to my surprise, in a gig bag. The accessories, except for the DVD and hard shell case, are all Fender branded. It looks to me like kit is repackaged from the Fender CD-60S Beginner Dreadnought Guitar Pack, Natural with Gig Bag, Strap, Picks, Strings, etc. with the addition of a perfectly snug fitting case which Probably retails just under $100. The guitar came very well set up, maybe the action is a tiny bit low for my taste, but no buzz on any fret. It is an easy player and comfortable in my hands, no sharp frets. Much better quality than I expected and maybe a little plain looking, but at first sight I thought to my self, that is one beautiful looking guitar. I still think that every time I go to play it. This is the kind of guitar that entices me to practice and play more. The sound is clean, clear and projects loudly enough. For a beginner, it's a can't miss instrument for an affordable price. It holds tune well after a rigorous practice session sometimes even with a capo has been used. There is no slippage or binding up in the tuners. Great value. I am 100% satisfied after the short couple of weeks I have owned it. Austin Bazaar customer service was pleasant and helpful, I called with a few questions before purchase and they were all cheerfully and accurately answered. The product was well packaged and delivery was two days earlier than promised. Yes, I gave it 5 stars only because there wasn't a plus option. A true pleasure doing business with Austin Bazaar.

Fender CD-60S Acoustic Guitar
Fender CD-60S is a step up from the more affordable FA-125CE acoustic-electric model. Available in a few different colors, it features a solid top, which adds to the cost but greatly improves the sound quality of the instrument. If you're a beginner who isn't sure whether guitar is the instrument for you, the FA-125CE model is a safer investment, but if you're looking to make a investment in an instrument that is well constructed and easy to play, CD-60S is a better long-term investment that rewards you with better sound quality. This particular bundle includes everything you need to start playing right out of the box, including a hard case, tuner, strap, strings, picks, and instructional materials. A more affordable version of the same bundle is available with gig bag rather than hard case.
