Fender CD-60S Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar Bundle

I haven’t had an acoustic guitar for about ten years. I mostly play electric. I was looking for something that wouldn’t break the bank and the Fender CD-60S seemed like it would be something that would work for me. I really like the look of this and the sound is really very nice! It holds tune very well and the action is ok from the factory. I did make a small truss rod adjustment to it but I would bet that for most people, they would be happy with the setup of this right out of the box. Awesome!

Well made! Sound is great. My son wanted to learn to play the guitar. I didn’t want to break the bank on something I wasn’t sure he would like. This guitar didn’t disappoint. The perfect option for a quality guitar on a budget.

At my first lesson, my instructor said it has a nice tone, had a pretty straight neck and is a good beginner guitar. He also said the bag was really cheap and won’t protect it, so you would probably be better off just buying the guitar and then the accessories separately. It has a nice classy look. The tune retention isn’t all that great (needs to be tuned at beginning of practice and sometimes halfway through, too) but expected at this price point.

After spending a couple years playing the ukulele, with the baritone ukulele over the last six months, I’ve finally done it; something I’ve wanted to do all my life (I’m 58.) I BOUGHT A GUITAR!

I have always loved the sound of the guitar, but with the background of being a drummer, and being visually impaired, I was fairly intimidated by the idea. Thanks to playing the ukulele, I have arrived here!

This guitar is GORGEOUS! Such beautiful sound, from the deep low notes, to the clear midrange, and crisp tight high notes. The sustain is AMAZING! It has a nice, low action, meaning you don’t have to squeeze too hard to get clear sounding notes and chords. It’s beautifully constructed, and the deep brown mahogany with the gloss finish is very aesthetically pleasing to the eye. (though a bit of a fingerprint magnet!) So far, it has stayed almost perfectly in tune, with just some minor adjustments between practice sessions.

Everything arrived as described except for the cleaning cloth, which the seller shipped out to me right away, after also being very helpful with some setup advice.

Make no mistake, this is a large instrument! It’s quite a jump from the baritone ukulele, but I’m already starting to feel more comfortable with it after a couple weeks. For me, holding this in what is referred to as the “classical position” is quite comfortable. You’ll want to buy a guitar foot rest to hold this beauty properly. Also, invest in a decent guitar stand so you can keep it safe but also handy!

We live in such a remarkable age, where lessons and information abound online! I’m currently using a 30 Day Guitar Challenge on YouTube, and the list of online guitar tutorials is virtually endless! Along these lines, I watched a number of reviews on this guitar, and the love for it was basically unanimous.

I am very pleased with this purchase, and truly believe that I got more than my money’s worth. I look forward to spending many years (hopefully!!!) exploring the joy of making music with this lovely creation from the good people at Fender.

If you’ve thought about playing guitar, and you have the money and some time a few days each week to practice, (ideally everyday), do yourself a massive favor and buy a guitar. This setup comes with just about everything you need, and it will enrich your life like little else can. We spend so much time and money on far less inspiring things. Music is a gift; immerse yourself in it; you’ll be glad you did.
