Solid Spruce Top Resonates with Rich Tone
The CD-60S's solid spruce top provides balanced tone with a full midrange and articulate high end. Spruce is a traditional acoustic guitar tonewood revered for its ability to vibrate freely, producing a dynamic range of tones. When paired with the mahogany back and sides, the spruce top helps generate a warm and rich dreadnought sound with clear articulation.

Fender's easy-to-play neck profile on the CD-60S is shaped to instantly feel comfortable and familiar. Its rolled fingerboard edges and 12" fingerboard radius facilitate smooth playability across all 20 frets.

Dreadnought Body Delivers Bold Tone
The CD-60S's dreadnought body shape provides the bold, booming tone that dreadnought guitars are known for. Its large size increases the soundboard area, allowing more vibration to produce a full, resonant voice. The dreadnought body, when combined with solid spruce top bracing, creates a vast tonal range from booming bass notes to ringing highs.
Quality Components and Construction
From its dual-action truss rod to its die-cast tuning machines, the CD-60S is equipped with components built to last. Its quartersawn scalloped "X" bracing helps produce rich tone while stabilizing the solid top. A walnut bridge provides solid contact points for the strings, facilitating clarity and sustain. The CD-60S delivers high quality at an affordable price.

This guitar feels great in your hands. Action is fast and not much needed to fret chords. Would definitely recommend. The quality was great out of the box. No fret buzz or dead spots. Tuned up and ready to go. Feels like I can play longer periods of time the fretting is so smooth.

This solid top guitar plays like guitars that cost twice as much. Great sound stays in tune and easy to use and tune. I practice on my Black Fender CD 60s then when I have everything working I switch to my Martin D-35. Don't be afraid to upgrade the strings…consider Martin silk core strings .
Wonderful sound, easy to play

Beginner guitar player here. I went to Guitar Center to try the Yamaha FS800 but ended up liking this Fender CD60-S so much better. It has a rich, deep and clear sound, stays in tune, and the narrow fretboard makes it easy to play if you have small hands. Honestly I like this even better than the much more expensive Seagull that I first borrowed to learn on. My guitar teacher even commented on how nice it sounds. And at this price, I don't have to constantly worry about it being damaged or scratched. Just an all-around great guitar. I absolutely love it.
Good for a beginner maybe
