A Fender Dreadnought Designed to Get Straight to the Point
The CD-60 embodies the spirit of Fender acoustics designed to offer an inspiring playing experience without unnecessary complexity. Its dreadnought shape and lutherie choices position it as a reliable acoustic guitar for starting out, rehearsing, and playing often, while remaining relevant as a budget-friendly "second" dreadnought for more experienced guitarists.
For Which Guitarist and Styles?
The Fender CD-60 clearly targets beginners who want a simple, comfortable, and motivating guitar from the first chords. Thanks to its volume reserve and balance, it also suits intermediate players for accompaniment and rhythmic playing. It is particularly comfortable in pop, folk, variety, and acoustic rock, whether you play with a pick (strumming) or light fingerpicking.
Sound
The dreadnought body is known for its generous projection and present bass: an excellent choice for filling a room and supporting vocals. The laminated spruce top provides clarity and a crisp attack, while the laminated mahogany back and sides enhance midrange warmth for full and clear chords. The scalloped "X" bracing promotes a more open response and good dynamics, useful for transitioning from soft playing to energetic accompaniment. The walnut fingerboard and bridge contribute to a precise playing feel, with pleasant definition in the highs.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To maintain the original feel, opt for 80/20 acoustic string sets with a .012-.052 gauge, such as the Fender Dura-Tone 880L (coated strings) factory-installed.
