    Well,I bought the hummingbird from a local music store,I was in a hurry, mistake,I went mostly on the good reviews, so I paid $360 , it sounded "ok" on the regular amp and I thought it would sound a lot better through my pa, well after bringing it home and hooking it up I thought the bass was very weak, the mids and highs were fine, I didn't realize how flat it sounded until I compared it to my fiends Fender CD-140SCE Cutaway , wow,BIG difference, beautiful sound amped or acoustic,the next day I took the hummingbird back and got that fender, mine was all mahogany. The fender has a better finish, way better sound acoustically, way better amped bass, the hummingbird did have better machines and lower, easier action,I liked that. So, for$40 more I got a better all around guitar,AND a surprisingly good case, way better than I though it would be. Before you buy the hummingbird, just try the Fender CD-140SCE Cutaway , I'm super happy.

    I am a little leary of buying guitars without laying hands on them first, but this time in worked out well. This guitar is easy to play and intonation is great up and down the neck. The tone wasn't quite as "fat" as I had hoped for but the 3 band EQ helps with that. The amplified signal is very clear and crisp! I am pleased with the purchase.

  • Great purchase

    Are the sides and back mahogany? On Fender's website they only have an all mahogany version which includes the sides and back being mahogany.
