For all those who associate Fender with electric guitars: Yes, Fender also manufactures acoustic guitars. And it's not a recent development either. Dating back to the 1960s, the American brand has been creating unique and exciting instruments. The Fender CD-60 BK V3 DS aligns itself with this tradition and another one: Since the early 1980s, Fender has been committed to creating quality instruments that are both suitable and affordable for beginners. The CD-60 BK is a dreadnought-style acoustic guitar with a brilliant black lacquer finish - and while its looks will certainly grab attention, its quality is evident, and its price is sensational. Thomann adds another layer with this bundle which includes a durable case, a tuner, and a - sorry, THE - Fender strap, as well as a handful of picks.
The Fender CD-60 BK V3 DS is undeniably a dreadnought, however, it has softer and rounder contours that set it apart from what most other manufacturers offer. Constructed entirely from laminated wood, it features a mahogany back and sides along with a spruce top. The neck is also mahogany, and the fingerboard and bridge are made of walnut, an obvious alternative to protected rosewood. Another noteworthy feature is the neck size, which at 25.3" (643mm) is slightly shorter than usual, noticeably improving playability.
The Fender CD-60 BK V3 DS is especially aimed at beginners or anyone wishing to start playing the guitar again. First and foremost, it catches the eye with both its appealing looks and its incredibly low price tag for an instrument of this quality - which appears to belong in a much higher price category. Furthermore, the reduced neck size will suit less experienced guitarists or those accustomed to more easy-to-handle electric guitars. The sound of the laminated wooden body is comparable to that of a solid wood guitar, and the distinctions reside more in dynamic management, a characteristic that makes the CD-60 more forgiving towards the odd wrong note.
Fender is without doubt one of the most legendary guitar and amplifier manufacturers of all time. The company was founded in 1946 by its namesake Leo Fender († 1991), whose innovative ideas brought a breath of fresh air into the musical world. His Telecaster, Stratocaster, Precision Bass, and Jazz Bass are not only classics – they also continue to shape the styles of musicians in countless genres to this day. Timeless Fender amplifier models such as the Bassman, Twin, Deluxe, and Princeton also enjoy a stellar reputation. Besides maintaining its classic product portfolio, however, the company is also constantly developing new products that make Fender a driving force in today’s music industry.
For many aspiring Pop and Rock musicians, nylon-string guitars may seem the very epitome of "uncool", but they are still the easiest way for beginners to take their first steps into the six-string world. Those who have done so will be all the happier to get their hands on a sturdy and great-sounding guitar like the Fender CD-60 BK V3 DS as their second instrument. And there is no need to worry about accessories with this bundle: Everything needed is there to immediately make the most of the guitar, including the legendary branded strap, so budding guitarists can start their musical journey in complete comfort.
