The Fender CD-60SCE combines comfortable playability, great tone, and built-in Fishman electronics into one affordable acoustic guitar, ideal for those looking to start their acoustic guitar playing journey

Dreadnought Body

The dreadnought is arguably the most popular acoustic guitar shape in the world, and for good reason. Dreadnoughts are known for being one of the louder body shapes thanks to its big sound and excellent projection and this model has a cutaway which makes it easier to reach those upper frets. With a booming bass and lower-midrange response, you're sure to be heard with a dreadnought. This shape is responsive to both strumming and fingerpicking so it'll handle whatever style you throw at it. This model has a laminate mahogany back and sides which provides some tonal warmth and punch, and has a solid spruce top for a balanced sound.

Easy-To-Play Neck

The CD-60SCE has Fender's 'Easy-to-Play' neck which features rolled fingerboard edges. Players of all skill-levels will enjoy this neck profile but especially beginners and those unfamiliar with acoustic guitars as the neck feels immediately comfortable in the hand so you can spend more time focussing on your playing.

Built-In Electronics

For playing gigs or for easy recording, the CD-60SCE comes with built-in Fishman electronics. The preamp features an onboard tuner, as well as volume, bass, and treble controls for shaping your tone. With the built-in electronics in the CD-60SCE, you can take it straight out the box and jump right into performing live or recording.

Electro-acoustic guitars are acoustic instruments fitted with built-in pickups or microphones that allow them to be amplified or connected directly to a PA system or amplifier. They retain the natural acoustic tone and feel of a traditional acoustic guitar while adding the convenience of onboard electronics.

They are commonly used for live performance and recording, especially in situations where consistent volume and clarity are needed.
