If you're a beginning guitar player, the best choice you can make is getting a guitar with a sound and feel that will inspire you to keep playing. The CD-60 is a genuine Fender that is affordable and comes in three great-looking finishes to match your style. It provides nicely balanced tone and plenty of volume thanks to its dreadnought body style and spruce top with scalloped "X"-bracing. The CD-60 is also an excellent choice for veteran players who need an inexpensive second dreadnought model, and it includes a hard-shell case for safe and convenient transport.
